Plot

The lively and sociable Jean Blom likes to party and feels held back by his wife, whom he considers boring, for being homely by nature, and preferring to spend time with her family. He plots to give her a recently developed experimental hormone injection to make her more lively. She overhears the plan and switches the drug with water. The only desire she then develops is one of revenge.
