An anonymous official of a Roman television company spends his working hours watching six televisions installed in his office, which transmit only news of various attacks and misfortunes, and grieving at his lack of success with women. He is also exasperated with his sexually-repressed wife Fedora, a teacher. One day, after 15 years he finds an old friend, Gualtiero, a teacher. The man is convinced that he has mysterious enemies determined to kill him. When he meets Gualtiero's nymphomaniac wife Ada, who is always on the outlook for kinky sex, she convinces him to put her husband in a clinic for treatment, where he is killed. Upon returning from the cemetery, where Fedora melted into tears on his friend's coffin, he learns that she is pregnant by Gualtiero.
