When disturbed young man Dennis Pitt becomes attracted to teenager Sue Ann Stepenek, he tells her that he really is a secret agent and takes her into adventures. Unfortunately, these adventures often end up in murder, sending Dennis into dead-end trouble.

This cult item features Tuesday Weld in her best known role, as seemingly innocent highschool senior who's actually a cool nymphet killer pinning all mischief on her boyfriend--Anthony Perkins and Weld are a movie pair made in Heaven.

The film is strongest when focusing on the two perfect-foil leads as they blissfully indulge paranoid fantasies about poison in the local water supply and plot covert counterespionage operations.
