 For the last nine years, Raymond Carey (BENJAMIN FRITZ) has been revising his doctoral dissertation on James Joyce. With the new budget crunch, he ll be forced out Berkeley s back door jobless and degree-less unless he can pull through and submit his dissertation by semester s end. Ray s professor, Dr. Hansel (DAVID GUILMETTE), agrees to sign off on the dissertation if Ray employs his powers of seduction to test the devotion of Grace (CHYNA CHUU), his mail-order bride. Ray reluctantly agrees but soon finds out Grace is a little more than he can handle. Ray s balancing act careens out of control when he discovers his girlfriend Holly (LARISSA KASIAN) has been seeing a rival graduate student, and Grace finally deserts her husband once and for all. Left alone, Ray and Dr. Hansel may just be able to learn something from each other. . . that is if they don t rip each other s throats open first!
