A suburban housewife's world falls apart when she finds that her pornographer husband is serially unfaithful to her, her daughter is pregnant, and her son is suspected of being the foot-fetishist who's been breaking local women's feet.
Francine Fishpaw is an upper middle class suburban housewife in Baltimore. Unfortunately, the money to support her lifestyle comes from her husband's porno theater, the neighbors are protesting, her son is a "stomper", her daughter is knocked up by a local hoodlum, and her husband is having an affair.—Stephen J.

Abused, neglected, and, above all, bullied in her own house, the unhappy Baltimore housewife with a heart of gold and an acute sense of smell, Francine Fishpaw, watches her already derailed life take a turn for the worse. To further complicate matters, without a shred of shame, Elmer--Francine's sleazy husband and owner of the local X-rated theatre--is leaving her for another woman; her disdainful daughter, Lu-Lu, is bearing the child of her delinquent boyfriend, and her glue-sniffing son, Dexter, is becoming a vicious foot fetishist. Then, out of the blue, the suave blonde charmer, Todd Tomorrow, enters the picture, and, for once in her life, Francine feels loved. Is there a crock of gold at the end of the rainbow?—Nick Riganas
Shown in cinemas with the new technology "Odorama" to highlight the strong olfactory powers of our heroine, suburban Baltimore housewife, 300-pound Francine Fishpaw, who considers herself a good Christian. She is trying but not succeeding in keeping her family together. She is detached from her two teenage children who do not confide in either of their parents. Older Lu-Lu, a proverbial sexpot, has continued to see her deadbeat boyfriend, their next door neighbor Bo-Bo Belsinger, against the dictate of her parents. With a female foot fetish, younger Dexter, without yet being identified or caught, has been carrying out some high profile crimes associated with his emotional disturbance. Francine's consumerism-focused mother, La Rue, takes advantage of her by stealing from her. But what's worst for Francine is her relationship with husband, Elmer, who largely neglects her. Beyond being associated with his X-rated movie theater which he publicizes in any manner he can, Francine has evidence that he is cheating on her, most-likely with his secretary, Sandra Sullivan. For solace, Francine turns to her only two friends: the bottle; and her simple-minded former housekeeper turned socialite through inheritance Cuddles Kovinsky. Francine's life seems to take a turn for the better upon meeting and mutually falling in love with a man named Todd Tomorrow. Can there be a happily-ever-after for Francine dependent upon Todd in her life?—Huggo
