When Spivey intervenes, the man tells Spivey that he "doesn't know what she is," forcing Spivey to shoot the man before he kills her. As he begins to console her, he first notices that although she has an attractive body, her face is horrifically disfigured. Despite his initial revulsion, she cuddles into his arms, and he finds himself affectionately drawn to her. At the police station, his partner continues to kid on about the whole situation, trying to get him to forget about the shooting and the female. Still oddly drawn to her, Spivey excuses himself from his partner. That night at home, his wife Ruby (Brenda James) attempts to console him after learning of the shooting. As they begin to make love, he keeps picturing the woman and begins to anally rape his wife. She eventually forces him off her as he has lost himself in his fantasy of the woman. The next day, after a female detective interrogates the mystery woman, the detective relates to Spivey that the girl's name is probably Jenifer, since it was on a note in the man's pocket, and that she is mute and most likely retarded. Spivey visits Jenifer at the mental hospital to check on her. A male orderly comments that she has been frightening the male staff. When he enters her room, she is still in the shower and runs to embrace him despite being completely nude. Frank takes her to his home because he cannot find anywhere else that will take her. That night he dreams of a non-disfigured Jenifer seducing him. When he awakes, she's standing in the room, Frank's wife and his son Pete (Harris Allen) first experience her with varying degrees of disgust. His wife issues an ultimatum that it will be her or Jenifer staying there, so he again goes out to search for a place to take her. This time, instead of looking, he is seduced by Jenifer in his car. When he brings her home. she frightens away Frank's wife and son--then devours his cat and murders and eats his young neighbor Amy (Jasmine Chan). Frank finally attempts to get a circus worker to kidnap her and put her in his freak show. When he arrives home, he finds Jenifer covered in blood--and the circus worker dead in his refrigerator. Frank takes Jenifer and flees to an abandoned cabin in the woods, where she hopefully can't hurt anyone. Frank gets a job at a small market and begins to slip out of Jenifer's spell. One day, however, Jenifer spies him with the attractive owner of the store and follows the shop owner's son to a party. There she lures him into the woods and seduces him. Much like Frank, he is repulsed by her face, but makes no effort to turn her away. In looking for Jenifer in the cabin cellar, Frank discovers her devouring the boy's genitals and snaps. Grabbing her by the hair, he forces her through the woods to kill her. Just as he's about to strike her down, a deer hunter shoots and kills Frank. Frank's last words are "Jenifer," as the deer hunter moves to comfort her...just as Frank had done. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jenifer (Masters of Horror)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
