Brief Synopsis

George Kimball is a devoted but chronically hypochondriac husband who mistakenly believes he is terminally ill after overhearing a doctor discussing another patient. Convinced he has little time left, George secretly begins making arrangements for his wife Judy’s future—including identifying a potential new husband. His secrecy triggers suspicion, emotional distance, and escalating misunderstandings that threaten the very marriage he is trying to protect.
