Hugh is given a raise by his philandering boss with the provision that Hugh will accompany him on his dates with pretty clients so if his wife catches him, he can pass off the girl as Hugh's friend. This works fine until Hugh's wife gets wind of it, bleaches her hair and follows them to a nightclub. Once there, she flirts with Hugh and leads him back home. Once inside, she goes from room to room, as the vamp in the living-room, who Hugh is trying to ditch, and as the sleeping wife in the bedroom. Hugh, being the sort who would take a girlfriend home to his wife, and figure out how to handle it later, handles it badly.
