"Harry Mitchell (Roy Scheider) is a successful businessman with mechanical aptitude living in the suburbs of Los Angeles whose wife Barbara (Ann-Margret) is running for city council. Harry is confronted by three hooded blackmailers who demand $105,000 per year for a videotape of him and the mistress, Cini (Kelly Preston) , with whom he has been having an affair. Because of his wife's political aspirations he cannot go to the police. Harry's stubborn inclination is to not surrender to the threats, and when his lawyer advises him that paying the blackmailers won't ensure that they go away, he refuses to pay.
