Mrs. Beasly, decides to take in this lodger who has an addiction to sweets taken to calm his violent tendencies. Mrs. Beasly, attempts to maintain the illusion of herself as the upholder of tradtional family values, she makes it her business to seduce the vulnerable Harold--mindless of the uncomfortable position in which both her husband and daughter are placed... Behind the curtains of their immaculate home, the seeds of discontent have been sown.
