Robin's mother takes a lodger, Mary - lonely, unhappy and quiet. She arouses Robin's curiosity, and Robin searches Mary's room for clues to her problems. Caught up in her discovery of Mary's husband's brutality, Robin clumsily tries to reunite the family to compensate for her own parents' failed marriage. A potentially interesting exploration of a delicate subject, this degenerates towards the end into a sub-Lowery Nixon melodrama.
