Unfortunately Carol escapes from the Asylum one night, and this sets off many people on her trail - Sheriff Kamp and the psychiatrist who want her back lest she be kidnapped for Blandish's fortune, by the trust lest she become de-certified as a psychiatric patient after 14 days out-of-asylum by law and then come to claim her money, a journalist Phil Magrath who wants to make it big for his paper by grabbing the news first, and soon by ruthless murderers who also want her to claim money.
