A witty, fast-paced comedy set in Los Angeles, the story involves two married couples—Gary and Jeannie, and Reuben and Meg—whose long-time friendship implodes when Gary, acting on a gnawing suspicion that Jeannie is having an affair, hires an eccentric private detective named Ezra Pound (no relation), who discovers that Jeannie is indeed having an affair, and it happens to be with his best friend, Reuben. In an attempt to deal with the fallout, they come up with a novel solution which they hope will salvage their friendship and their marriages. Major shit hits the fan.
