Adam is a young banker living in Islington, preparing himself for big opportunities in the EEC (European Economic Community). He plays squash and walks for exercise, goes to dinner theaters and discos with Heather, whom he has known for a year and loved for eight months. Heather works in a department store. Every other weekend he visits his wealthy, proper family in Sussex and says little about his lifeā€”and nothing about Heather, until he asks to bring her for a visit. On the train, Adam worries about the impression that liberated Heather will make, reading sexy magazines and lounging with her feet in his lap. He warns her that they must have separate bedrooms. She responds that they will find ways to get together.
