Dan Gallager is an upper class business executive living with his wife and 5 year old daughter in Manhattan.

Later in the movie, they eventually find that they click in a sexual way, and wind up naked doing the nasty on a kitchen counter. This affair continues for a few weeks, with Dan spending the weekend at Alex's apartment while his wife and daughter are away. It is about this time that Dan begins to feel very guilty about the affair and decides to call it off. It is also this time when Alex begins to feel more than just sexual feelings for Dan and is not at all pleased that he is dropping her.

    Alex will stop at nothing to keep Dan all her own, including allowing herself to get Pregnant, harrassing him at work, phoning him at all hours, pretending to be an interested buyer in their Manhattan condo, kidnapping his child from school, and following his family to their new country home in Upstate New York.
