Three couples meet in a living room and play dangerous word games. One person’s motives become apparent because she is suffering from an unknown disease that will claim her life. Mounting tension drives the guests to leave. The following day a mysterious woman and her companion appear. She asks, “Are we in time? Is this the place?" She is a woman of poise, sophistication and class. But who is she? Who is her companion? Why is she here?
