Bobby Lee Burnett lives a simple suburban life with his wife, Sue-Ann, whose efforts to please him include having orgasms that end with her saying: "Bingo." After she throws a party for his 40th birthday, Bobby undergoes a serious mid-life crisis. He changes his wardrobe, buys a car and begins an affair with another woman.
