Da un romanzo di Ira Levin. La bella Carla (Stone) non avrebbe voglia di avventure sentimentali ma viene coinvolta da Jack (Berenger), scrittore in crisi, e Seek (Baldwin), ambiguosissimo e insinuante. Sceglie quest'ultimo. Nel frattempo è andata ad abitare in un palazzo dove è stata uccisa una ragazza e altra gente, e dove nelle stanze di ogni appartamento è installata una telecamera nascosta e c'è chi, da un grande studio pieno di monitor, viene a sapere tutto di tutti. Fra un amplesso e l'altro Carla viene sconvolta da rivelazioni, da morti e da sospetti. L'assassino non può che essere uno dei due uomini. Quando tutto indicherebbe Seek (che sappiamo essere il superguardone), ecco che il colpevole è lo scrittore complessato.
