Claire Calvert, a beautiful and once active woman, is told that she only has a few weeks to live. Faced with imminent death, she calls her husband Digby and Laura, a loyal family friend, to her bedside and tells them that she hopes that they will marry after she has gone, for they are so obviously falling in love with each other, though they are too loyal to her to admit it. Digby and Laura agree but then news is received from Canada of a new untested serum that could mean complete recovery for Claire.
