At the forefront of the Sexual Revolution, Masters and Johnson are about to publish their study, finally removing the shroud from the work that's consumed them for the past decade. As they face the press for the first time, they flashback to a summer vacation of the year prior, where Virginia is faced with parenting struggles, Bill is finishing work on their book, and Libby is pulling herself out from beneath a deep depression.
William Masters and Virginia Johnson were the real-life pioneers of the science of human sexuality. The series chronicles the unusual lives, romance and pop culture trajectory of Masters and Johnson.
Their research touched off the sexual revolution and took them from a mid-western teaching hospital in St. Louis to the cover of Time magazine and nearly a dozen appearances on Johnny Carson's couch.
