Mrs. Pollifax is a senior widow with a great deal of spare time on her hands. She used to spend this time by volunteering, going to Garden Club meetings, and trying to avoid her nosy neighbor, Miss Hartshorne. One day while reading the newspaper she spies an article which inspires her to do what she had wanted to do ever since she was a little girl: become a secret agent. Mrs. Pollifax leaves her cozy New Jersey apartment and shows up at CIA headquarters in Washington D.C. where, through a case of mistaken identity, she ends up with a courier assignment in Mexico to begin her career in espionage.
