The daughter of a British prison governor returns from an American finishing school and chases after the inmates of her dad's prison.

Angela Thorne (Alexandra Hay) is a 17-year-old school girl who arrives at an English airport from America. Paul Floret (Sandor Elès), her father's driver collects her there. In the car, Angela is flirty and begins to undress in the back seat causing Floret to stop short. She has shed her school girl outfit for a short mini skirt. They arrive at H.M. Prison Greybourne where her father (Neil Hallett) is the prison governor. He also resides on the grounds. Angela asks Paul what was his crime. Paul, who is quiet, replies he killed a woman by talking her to death. Angela is dropped at her warden father's office at the prison. She is greeted by old friend Ralph Daly (Robert Brown) who she used to call "Uncle Ralph." She convinces him to seek out her father who is giving a tour to governing magistrates on a prison inspection. The prison now operates with minimum security where prisoners roam with some freedom and have jobs around the facility. Angela turns heads wherever she goes. Her widowed father is surprised to see her in the prison block, and offer a stern greeting in front of the magistrates and send her to the house. Angela has not been home since she was 13. She and her father have a distant relationship. Eyes of many men, both convicts and guards, follow Angela as she walks to her house. Mrs. Jackson (Stella Tanner), her father's housekeeper, greets Angela at the house. She questions Angela about her altered school uniform. Meanwhile, Warden Thorne and Daly discuss the surprise of finding his daughter while working. Thorne continues his duties rather than return to the house. Mrs. Jackson explains to Angela that there is no television in the house because her father simply wouldn't take the time to watch it. Bored, Angela starts drinking her father's alcohol but when he arrives, she claims she has poured him a drink. With six new prisoners entering the next day, Warden Thorne will have no time for Angela. Since Angela s clothes do not fit and are out of fashion, Thorne offers his driver to take Angela shopping the next day. Angela dresses sexy and flirts with Paul who is just two months away from leaving the prison and wants to keep his nose clean. On the ride back from shopping, Angela steals the car keys and stops the car. Angela heads into the woods being flirtatious but finally gives up with seducing straightlaced Paul. She throws the keys down a hillside, finds a place to sit down and smokes pot. That night, prisoner Carl Maxwell (Harry Baird) sees Angela topless in her bedroom window. Unable to sleep, Angela goes for a walk and is stopped by Forbus (Fredric Abbott) on night patrol. She notices he has been drinking, and threatens to tell her father and subsequently seduces him. The next morning, Angela flirts with Paul in the auto shop. She wants Paul to drive her to the stables to ride her horse Shamrock. After the ride, Angela explains to Paul she gets like a fever, that needs relief. Then she begs Paul to make love to her. He rejects her, telling her she is sick. When they return, Warden Thorne can sense the anger between Paul and Angela. Angela immediately invents a story that satisfies her father's curiosity. Angela finds Carl, a black man who works in the motor pool as a mechanic, by a tree and flirts with him. Then Angela sneaks into prisoners' dormitory. She notices Gribney (David Bauer), a prisoner who picked up her handkerchief she had dropped to draw attention to herself. She teases him by undoing her pants but then quickly refastens them and runs off. He chases her through the woods. When they get to the shops and recreation area, Gribney lunges for her and hits his head. Then Gribney tackles Angela and starts to sexually assault her. Angela screams. Guards, prisoners and Warden Thorne race to her rescue. Gribney accuses Angela of wanting it. Carl defends Angela and knocks him out cold. Later, Mrs. Jackson scolds Angela and advises her not to return to the prison grounds saying she is mixed up. Angela provides Mrs. Jackson her comprehensive psychological profile as a bisexual nymphomaniac and exhibitionist as proof she knows exactly who she is. At the prison, Angela tries to blend in with the visitors who are seeing inmates that day. She learns that Linda (Tracy Reed) is there to visit Floret. Then, she bothers Carl at the motor pool. She antagonizes Paul while riding her bike. She gets physical pleasure from riding her bicycle. That evening, Gribney waits to be shipped to a more secure prison. Angela gets lost on her bike ride. It is after dark and cold. Seeking refuge, Angela wanders upon a campsite where two teen boys are camping. They stoke the fire and offer Angela a sleeping bag. The boys cannot sleep because they are excited sleeping with a girl. Gribney lights a newspaper on fire and throws it at the guard to start an escape attempt. Angela spends the night with the boys, while Paul has an erotic dream where he is in bed with both Angela and Linda. Angela leaves the campsite early the next morning. She is found riding on the road by Paul Floret and some prison guards who tell Angela that her father is worried and has half the police force looking for her. They deliver Angela to her father who is relieved to see her and informs her that Gribney has escaped. At home, when Angela enters her bedroom, Gribney who has snuck in through the window, holds a scissors at Angela's throat. To remove the threat, Angela invites Gribney onto her bed. The night security patrol sees Gribney in the window. Four guards enter the house but Gribney escapes out the window. Angela sobs as her father enters. The security detail finds Gribney on the rooftop of the cell block. In his panic to avoid capture, Gribney falls to his death. When Angela visits the crime scene, Forbus wants to know when Angela will see him again. She rejects his offer. Angela's father gets Angela a plane ticket and money to return to the states. She goes to visit Carl in the motor pool. They share a joint and start to make out until Forbus interrupts them. Forbus summons Angela's father to the garage. Forbus accuses Carl Maxwell of trying assault the warden's daughter, a story that Angela supports. However, Floret interrupts calling them both liars. Warden Thorne orders both Carl and Paul locked up. They react by taking Angela hostage and ordering the governor to allow the car through the prison gate without stopping. The car speeds recklessly through the prison grounds and out the gate. Forbus and Thorne follow in the prison van. The escapees pull off the road and abandon the car. The van in pursuit stops. Forbus is left to scout through the woods while Thorne continues to cruise the roadways. Forbus discovers the car almost immediately. Angela, Carl and Paul are hiding nearby. Angela, given the opportunity to scream, does not. The three start to run, but Forbus sees them. The chase is now on foot. Carl, Angela and Paul roar out of a thicket having stolen a motorcycle from a couple who was using the privacy of the thicket to be intimate. Warden Thorne gives up the local search. The police are informed. Later, Thorne get a call the escapees were spotted and they had abandoned the motor cycle. Through the night, Angela, Carl and Paul make their way to Hamburg where Paul's friend has a boat to cross the channel. They get to Peter's yacht who allows them on board. They discuss their destination but must wait until the evening tide to depart. Carl and Paul send Peter away. Paul decides to return to Greybourne not wanting to spend his life running. Angela and Carl remain on board and have sex. Carl brings Warden Thorne to the boat and he discovers the truth about his daughter. She explains in tears that it is easy to be wanted in bed and better than being not wanted at all.
