Plot – A woman's voice tells the story of her ex-husband Nick's past life, who has been surrounded by women since childhood and even more so now in his successful advertising job. His certainties of being a handsome man suffer an unexpected set back when he sees his promotion to creative director has been stolen by a woman, the rampant and aggressive Darcy. Still incredulous, one morning in the bathroom, he falls in the bathtub while the hair dryer is on: the device releases a charge and he passes out. The next day in the office, he realizes he has a strange ability: he is able to read women's minds.
