Set in an apartment building whose occupants include Arthur Earthleigh, a meek and mild type married to the beautiful-but-domineering Mae; a Bohemian artist, David Galleo and his always-there model, Deborah Tyler; and Olive Jenson, a Greenwich Village type who is always slightly-but-continuously inebriated, and whose motto is "love and let love." She calls on Arthur while his wife is out, and when she passes out during his attempts to get her out before his wife returns, he thinks she is dead and deposits her on Galleo's terrace. Galleo takes advantage of the situation by using it in a blackmail scheme against Arthur, which is shaky, at best, as Olive refuses to stay dead.—Les Adams <[email protected]>

Not all is right on the tenth floor of 35 East apartment building in Greenwich Village, all under the all knowing eyes of busybody seniors Misses Spring and Ritchie who can see everything on the tenth floor terraces from their own twelfth floor terrace, or so they believe. In 10A are Mae and Arthur Earthleigh, Mae who controls everything in their marriage much to the cowering dismay of henpecked businessman Arthur. What Mae wants, which means what she wants Arthur to do as the man of the house, is have the tenant in 10B, playboy artist David Galleo, and his champion purebred German Shepherd Rabelais evicted, the last straw for her being Rabelais jumping their common terrace fence to bury a bone in Mae's bed of zinnias. If the Earthleighs get what they want, it will be bad timing for Deborah Tyler, who came all the way from Philadelphia to track down Rabelais, who she wants to be the stud for her female shepherd. Regardless, Deborah becomes David's latest model/girlfriend in his immediate attraction to her. The world of this collective of six humans and one dog is turned upside down with the introduction of interior decorator Olive Jenson onto the tenth floor, she who has a penchant for alcohol and resultingly passing out to the point of looking like she's dead, causing a perception problem as there is a serial killer on the loose in the neighborhood. Additionally, Olive seemingly doesn't want to leave the tenth floor despite the residents' individual efforts.—Huggo
