The couple is on vacation, and Ma-ri and Jin-seong are alone in the house. One ordinary day, An Uninvited Guest called Soo-jeong comes along. She had a fight with her husband and had come to stay in her brother's house for a few days. However, one night Soo-jeong gets drunk and mistakes Jin-seong's room for hers. As a result, they end up sleeping together. Ma-ri sees Soo-jeong come out of Jin-seong's room, but suspects nothing else. Vegetarian Jin-seong craves sex and sleeps with Soo-jeong once again. However, Soo-jeong goes back to her husband, and Jin-seong can't help but feel lonely. Meanwhile, Ma-ri likes Jin-seong and seduces him to have sex with her, but she's outraged when he tells her he had sex with her aunt.
