It is an adaption of a hit Broadway play with the same name by Muriel Resnik. The story of Any Wednesday is set in New York City and follows a wealthy businessman named John (Jason Robards) who is having an extramarital affair with a young woman named Ellen (Jane Fonda). John has arranged for them to use his company's executive suite for their rendezvous every Wednesday. However, their plans are disrupted when John's business partner, Howard (Dean Jones), unexpectedly arrives at the office on one of their Wednesdays.

Howard is unaware of the affair and mistakes Ellen for a call girl. Ellen goes along with Howard's mistake and convinces him to hire her for the night. This leads to a series of misunderstandings and comical situations as John tries to cover up his affair and keep Howard from finding out the truth.
