In New York City, Ellen Armstrong (Sherilyn Fenn) needs some space from her girlfriend Connie Czapski (Kelly Lynch). A heart-broken Connie needs a date for a wedding. She hasn't come out to her old traditional Polish neighborhood or family. She decides to hire male escort Joe Casella (William Baldwin). He works for Mickey (Joe Pantoliano) who also runs a sex phone line. Connie comes up with a devious plan. Joe would break Ellen's heart so that she would come running back to Connie.

Joey Pants, Harvey, and the phone sex line are all trying to inject humor into the movie with limited success. If anything, I would cut out those parts. They don't have the same tone as the story with the main trio. They do generate the reason for Joe to move in with Connie which may not be a good thing since it muddied the waters of their budding friendship. The reason is still pretty thin and it doesn't make sense that Connie is so trusting of Joe so quickly.

Within it all, building their friendship is the heart of this movie. Instead, the filmmaker seems to be stuck with the male fantasy of turning lesbians. Well, Ellen seems to be bi at least. The movie is stuck with some of this more awkward aspects instead of nurturing its more heart-warming aspects. It takes a long arduous road but eventually it gets to the right place. This is a flawed indie and it's not that well made either.
