Annabel's friend Charlie, a brilliant but accident-prone scientist, faces dismissal after a lab explosion. Sam Jerrard, the owner of the lab, is unyielding and misinterprets Annabel's defense of Charlie as romantic interest. Desperate, Annabel confronts Sam directly, stowing away in his car to plead Charlie's case, only to find the situation escalating into a more dangerous and unpredictable mix of emotions and circumstances.
