Alex Sherman-Zicklin is a mid-level marketing executive who never expected his wife's fourteenth attempt at a TV pilot (about a housewife who runs a prostitution ring out of her suburban scrapbooking shop) to get produced. But now it's been ordered to series and awarded an Emmy. Overnight, she's sucked into a mad show-business vortex and he's tasked with managing their new high-profile Hollywood lifestyle. Equally sudden is Alex's newfound place in a posse of Plus Ones-men who are married to women whose success, income, and public recognition far surpasses their own. Now he's wondering how he can regain the foreground in his own life.
