Actress Lesley prides herself on her professionalism - always getting involved up to the hilt, even if the job is just a walk-on. She tends to play fun-loving girls, although she's a very serious person. She's offered an audition by Spud, an interesting man she meets at a party. At the audition, after she has stripped down to bra and panties, she's given the part of Travis, who spends the film on the deck of a yacht.
