Middle-aged, simple-minded Chance lives in the townhouse of a wealthy old man in Washington, D.C.. He has spent his whole life tending the garden and has never left the property. Passing by a TV shop, he sees himself captured by a camera in the shop window. In the car is Rand’s much younger wife Eve, who mishears ‘Chance, the gardener’ in reply to the question who he is, as ‘Chauncey Gardiner’.

In 1915, married socialite Louise Bryant encounters the radical journalist John Reed for the first time at a lecture in Portland, Oregon, and is intrigued with his idealism. After meeting him for an interview on international politics that lasts an entire night, she realizes that writing has been her only escape from her frustrated high-society existence.
