In Penang, two young Englishmen face execution for drug trafficking. Their relatives arrive hoping to influence the authorities, but discover that they cannot save them; their attempts also expose their own racism and raise the question of who the real barbarians are.
At a garden party in Ealing, two couples struggle to converse while the wives' laughter and talk about their husbands interrupt them. When the women join the men, a confrontation follows; in the second act, the couples' positions reverse as the setting shifts toward a mental hospital.
