Erstwhile gigolo and personal fitness instructor Jack (Tony DeCamillis) is blackmailed by a powerful businessman, Pryce (Paul Sorvino), who wants Jack to woo beautiful, young, wealthy widow Rachel Montgomery (Hunter Tylo) to discover insider financial information that Pryce can use in the stock market to make tons of money. Jack has no choice because Pryce threatens the life of Jack's younger brother Alex (Joey Schulthorpe) if he doesn't play along. As part of his plot, Jack brings Alex to meet Rachel's 16-year-old daughter Gloria (Danielle Fishel).
