Alvin Thomas has less than three weeks to produce the girlfriend he told the former love of his life he already had. To find one, he'll have to get out of the comic book store and into the singles scene. But when "just being himself" leads to one humiliation after another, he forms a new plan: be someone else. It works so well it becomes addictive. From black belt to Buddhist, from park ranger to music producer, Alvin soon has more identities than he can handle, and his new girlfriends are starting to catch on.
