Summary :
Henry Wilt, Assistant Lecturer (Grade Two) at the Fenland College of Arts
and Technology has his job for ten years and he hates it. Also he hates Eva,
the wife at his side since the twelve years of marriage and so he just considers
of how he could kill her the easiest way.
One day, after being told that he wasnt promoted fifth time in a row and later
getting punched by one of his pupils he comes home and Eva says to him, that
she wants to suck his nipples until he comes oral wise, so the only thing he
does is turn around and flee for the next hours. The woman Eva has her
inspirations from for such things is Sally Pringsheim, a bi - sexual
nymphomatic new friend of her. The next day Eva and Henry (against his will)
go to a party from Sally and her husband Gaskell, a rich and important
scientist. At the party, Sally gives Henry the order to fuck her but he dont want
to. Sally is really enraged at that and when Henry fells down and is
unconscious for a moment Sally takes all his clothes off and stucks his dick in
Judy, the sex - doll of her man. Henry wakes up but cant get out, falls again and
the people from the party see him lying around like this. Late at night he goes
home alone. Next day after coming home from work he finds a letter from Eva
and a package.The letter says that she wont ever forgive him and that she will
be away a few days with Sally and Gaskell. In the package there lies Judy.

And Eva really spends the next days together with Pringsheims on a boat.
First she thinks everything they do or talk about is so wonderful and
intelligent, but at the end she gets trouble with them and escapes from the
boat.
Meanwhile Henry has the most exciting week in his life.
At the first evening he tries to "practice" the murder and dresses the doll with
clothes and a wig of Eva. He carries her to a 10 meters deep hole near his
school which shall be filled with cement the next day and Judy - against
Henrys will, he just wanted to test it - fells in. Henry, unlucky as he is, also
loses some papers there. The next day the workers come and fill in the cement
but they think theyve seen a woman in there, find the papers that Henry wrote
and so the Police catches him for murder. The next six days Henry spents with
Inspector Flint, who wants him to make a confession but Henry doesnt, instead
he makes him mad. Some very shamy moments for the Inspector, some very
disillusionary ones for Eva and very funny ones for Henry later, Eva comes
back and so they have to let Henry go, but the one who is most unhappy about
it, is Henry himself...
