Two thirtysomething white collar business partners--both of whom have been rejected by women--conspire to find a vulnerable woman, simultaneously date her, and then break up with her just to assuage their damaged egos. Both men, however, become attracted to the woman and then become engaged in a cat-and-mouse game of one-upmanship that eventually escalates into full-scale psychological warfare. (Verleiher-Text)
