Nan Adams (Inger Stevens) on a cross-country road trip from UsefulNotes/NewYorkCity to UsefulNotes/LosAngeles, recently suffered a blowout on one of her tires. A mechanic puts a spare on her car and directs her to the nearest town to have it fixed properly. Just before she leaves, Nan notices a strange-looking man (Leonard Strong) hitchhiking on the side of the road. Unnerved, she quickly drives away. As she continues her trip, Nan sees the same hitchhiker thumbing for a ride at several other points on her journey. She becomes increasingly frightened of him the more he shows up, and when she is stuck on a railroad crossing and nearly hit by a passing train, she becomes convinced that the hitchhiker is trying to kill her. She continues to drive, stopping only when necessary; but every time she does, the hitchhiker is there.
