Role: Geraldine is the love interest of two people (and the sexual interest of even more). After running out on her abusive spouse, Geraldine seeks refuge in a small hotel. Her spouse, however, follows her to the door. When Geraldine expresses that she is through with living with him and with making him money as a prostitute, he physically attacks her. The owner of the hotel, Magdalene, intervenes and offers her a room. Geraldine takes it, but, realizing that she has to pay, must get a job at Magdalene's night club where she might just get more than she bargained for.
