Alan Morris, distraught over the failure of his marriage, shoots his estranged wife, Nikki, a Las Vegas go-go dancer, and vows to kill Michele and Iris, Nikki’s dance partners, whom he blames for his marriage breakup. He seeks out Michele and Iris as they leave the hospital where Nikki has died and runs over Iris and the police officer assigned to protect the two women.

Alan learns of Michele’s whereabouts, hitchhikes to Los Angeles, murders the man from whom he accepted the ride and steals his car, and begins stalking Michele, who, by now, has moved into Joe’s apartment.
