Ikke blot forlader hun alt hvad hun kender og elsker, hun synes også hun ligner en hval, og det var vel ikke det hendes mand Joe havde regnet med da han giftede sig med hende.Elegante Avice får sig noget et chok da hun opdager at hun skal dele en lillebitte kahyt sammen med tre andre kvinder på et hangarskib. Hun havde så bestemt haft indtryk af at transporten ville foregå under mere bekvemme forhold.Teenagepigen Jean rejser for at slippe ud af den fælde hendes sociale omstændigheder er ved at klappe sammen om hende. Hun er lidt vild og roder sig ofte ud i situationer hun ikke kan overskue.Sygeplejersken Frances er den eneste af de fire kvinder i kahytten der har oplevet krigens rædsler. Frances er ekstremt reserveret og har meget svært ved at klare de trange forhold om bord.
