The play takes place on Labor Day weekend in the joint backyards of two middle-aged women.

The other house belongs to Helen Potts, who lives with her elderly and invalid mother. Helen takes pity on a young good for nothing drifter, Hal and offers him food and a bit of work. Flo is sensitively wary of the temptations Hal poses for her daughters. But Madge, bored with being merely a beauty, sacrifices
her chances for a wealthy marriage for the excitement that Hal promises.
