Larry is a good husband and father, and a conscientious professor at a quiet Midwestern university. He always tries to do the fair and just thing in the face of life's temptations and trials. Then one day, everything starts to go wrong, his wife leaves him for reasons she can't explain, and her pompous new lover muscles in on the family and their home, convincing the already cash-strapped Larry to move into a motel. His career is put in jeopardy by a series of anonymous letters falsely accusing him of unspecified misdemeanours, and his unemployable brother is becoming more and more of a burden.

It takes into account the the Floral Hall for it's stunning hidden view , the "St. Petersburg-on-Thames", up Nelson's Stairs, into the venerable RAF church, into an early 17th-century room that Shakespeare may have frequented, into the old Bank of England and to crown it all, into the Royal Courts of Justice to watch a trial (when the Royal Courts are in session). Tom, who guides this walk, is a barrister, and Brian, the other guide, read Law at university.
