Jack plots to kill Frankie in order to collect on her life insurance. Jack becomes delusional and has visions of the rude and crude Frankie relentlessly taunting him. As he unravels and can’t decipher paranoia from derangement he decides to smother his wife. Frankie dies but does not disappear. Is her ghost haunting Jack or is he insane?
