Martin has always been unlucky in love, whereas his best friend, Laura, always dates hot guys. Laura decides that she is going to help Martin to get a girlfriend and, after some failed blind dates, decides to recruit dating coach ‘Paradox’ for support.
​
Martin goes on a ‘dating bootcamp’, which includes trips to bars to practice his newfound skills. After many embarrassing fails, Martin DOES get more confident, and starts bedding women left, right and centre.
However, Martin also becomes arrogant and callous: he doesn’t care whose feelings he hurts…

Laura, realising that it’s all gone too far, and that she is the one responsible for this unpleasant change, decides that she will try to help Martin to see the error of his ways before his soul is lost forever.
