Synopsis: Mark Lawler has always imagined the world as a movie. With his overactive imagination, he can't help equating life and art. Currently, he's living the dream: successful actor, beautiful wife, and he works with his best friend, television heartthrob Zach Pericles. The problem is a certain contingent of fans are convinced Mark and Zach are really in love. When a compromising photo of them leaks to the press, Mark's life spins out of control. The show's executive producer plans to kill off Mark's character, and Mark faces unemployment and life as a single man. He turns to Ross Lockhart, an old acquaintance, to help him pick up the pieces. Ross has to be the most frustrating man Mark's ever known, but he's levelheaded and wise for his years, and Mark envies the honest life he leads. Maybe Ross can teach Mark a thing or two about finding his own happily ever after.
