Synopsis
The Nut Factory
Published by Samuel French Inc
6 Male 1 Female
The resident psychiatrist of their 'half-way house' for emotionally disturbed adolescents is missing
The inspector is due any minute
They are one patient under their minimum quota and, to put it mildly, in trouble
Undaunted by details, Christine persuades her boyfriend, Barry, to put on a false beard and intern's jacket, and pose as their missing psychiatrist, while Karen pretends to be a patient
She even maintains this pretense when the examiner turns out to be a handsome young man she's been gradually falling in love with while doing research at the library
He's equally interested in her and believes she's suffering from a mild neurosis
Naturally, he consults the phony psychiatrist and the troubles really multiply!
