The first story concerns Rex and Wilma, a couple whose relationship is tested when Rex returns from abroad and discovers Wilma has married Terry O'Dair during his absence. Wilma explains that marriage to Terry was her "passport into the world of adventure" she had dreamed of, but realizes she made a terrible mistake and must now find the courage to confront the consequences of her hasty decision. The second story, "Lover, Look Out!", provides dating advice warning readers to avoid certain undesirable romantic types, including jealous women with green eyes, flirts who cannot be trusted, and domineering partners who seek to control their companions' choices and freedoms.
