THE STORY: The main plot revolves around tow couples. Anne Carruth, thinking her husband dead in a prison camp, became involved with another man, only to learn that her husband still lives. She becomes a waitress in the cafe in an attempt to lose her identity. Her husband, who has had his share of romantic conflict, finds her there and finally persuades her into the belief that the broken threads of their marriage can be knit into a new beginning with the horrors of the interlude erased. The other young husband, suspecting his wife guilty of an indiscretion with one of his buddies, learns the truth of his suspicions in the cafe and in blind emotion their lives end in tragedy. Against these two stories are etched brief character studies and bits of comedy which add to the portrait of life in Truckline Cafe.
