Jay a regular client of the bordello sneaks in paranoid that he is being followed. Belle advises him to relax and prepare for his date with Sylvia. Jay assures Belle that Sylvia will take care of that for him. Their afterglow conversation turns to Jay's wife. When he gets home his wife confront him about his infidelity at the bordello. Jay and Marla begin arguing over fault and blame. Marla demands a divorce and Jay states it would be a relief to be rid of her.
The next day Marla goes to the bordello where she meets Sylvia who was expecting her. Sylvia tells Marla that she relates to her problem and offers some advice. Marla admits that she is not satisfied by sex and Sylvia tells her that she must start by learning how her body responds and what it needs to reach climax. Marla is unsure but that night at home she begins to fantasize about making love to her husband and decides to take Sylvia up on her offer.
At their next meeting, Marla discusses the problems in her marriage what with Jay frequently being away compounding her own lack of spontaneity in bed. Sylvia suggest that they role-play being Marla and Jay. In just a few minutes Marla begins to see how a new attitude could spice up their love life and bring Jay back to their marriage bed. Coming home Marla finds Jay picking up a few possessions and she tries coming on to him but Jay is reluctant and declines.
When Marla relates her failure to Sylvia and Belle, they suggest she spend some time at the bordello and when Jay next comes to see Sylvia surprise him in a way he can't refuse.
Jay indeed comes back to Sylvia. In her room she blindfolds him forbidding him to peek. As Sylvia massages him Jay doesn't notice when Marla replaces Sylvia. Blindfold in place Marla and Jay exchange touches. The ruse continues until Jay recognizes the sound of Marla's moaning and removes the blindfold. Not distressed in the least Jay continues making love to Marla. In the parlor Sylvia and Belle toast to happy marriages where Jay finds them and announces that her and his wife are off for two weeks in Jamaica.
