Danny is a young adult from a wealthy family. He runs away from home because his parents are divorcing. Hopping into a railroad boxcar, Danny meets Bix Dugan, a long-time drifter who agrees to mentor Danny. Danny's naivete leads him to a variety of precarious situations from which Bix must extract him.
Stopping in small town, Danny and Bix get jobs in a diner. Bix becomes romantically involved with the waitress Carrie and re-examines his lifestyle. This earns him the ire of Jesse, a troubled character in the town who is fixated on Carrie.
In a fit of jealousy, Jesse assaults Carrie, but Bix is accused of her subsequent death. Carrie's father Cal attacks Bix in a drunken rage before Danny forces Jesse to confess.
With the assault scene excised, The Girl in Lovers' Lane was featured in the fifth season of Mystery Science Theater 3000, first aired in 1993.
