the Totaled Man

Portly, middle-aged Herbert Hendorf’s rotund wife Agnes goes Total Woman, setting up sensual and exciting (she thinks) but outlandish (and exhausting, he thinks) sexual encounters at every opportunity. He retreats into daydreams and invents a recycling machine which he hopes will win the Fantastic Plastics Factory’s million dollar prize for saving them from extinction by the EPA. However, accused of fraud by thieves who steal his plan and present it as their own, Herbert is desolated; his life’s work is lost. Will he recover? And what about his oh-so-complicated relationship with Agnes who, after all, only wants to make him happy?
