Getting sicker by the minute, Prior Walter is abandoned by his tormented lover, Louis; deluded lawyer Roy Cohn is visited by Ethel Rosenberg, a woman he helped to condemn; and the pill-popping Harper is on the verge of losing her sanity when she realizes that her husband, Joe, is a closet homosexual
