Young housewife Bonnie is on a bus to Toronto. She is pregnant, which her husband Stanley, an auto mechanic and aspiring race car driver, is delighted about. However, Stanley is unaware he is not the real father of the baby and that Bonnie is seeking an abortion. On the bus, Bonnie meets Rita, a free-spirited itinerant between jobs. The two women become friends and decide to get an apartment together in Toronto, eventually finding jobs at a mattress factory. Dealing with romance and poverty, they learn that they have more in common than they thought.
Rita sets her romantic sights on Marcello, the factory owner’s nephew. As Bonnie contemplates getting an abortion, Stanley tracks her down and she is forced to admit the truth. Rita’s affair with Marcello ends in betrayal when his fiancée from Italy arrives. Stanley and Bonnie eventually reunite after he comes to terms with Bonnie’s infidelity and agrees to help raise the baby as his own.
