Plot introduction[edit]

Edward is married to Helen but has an affair with Binny. Tonight, the lovers are holding their first dinner party, although Edward has promised his wife that he will not be home late. Unfortunately, things don't go as planned, and the dinner party is gate-crashed by desperate bank-robbers wielding sawn-off shotguns and seeking hostages.
