By chance Bobbo's firm requests two of their temps and Ruth knows just who to send along,a bimbo whom he will love and leave wanting revenge and a computer hacker. Between them they frame Bobbo for embezzlement though the money he has supposedly stolen ends up in Ruth's account. After Bobbo is arrested the next step is to become Polly,the house-keeper to the judge who will try him and who,after indulging in some S and M,she persuades him to send Bobbo down for a very long time.
