Quick Synopsis
Dustin, who is deeply in love with his girlfriend Alexis, finds himself dumped after she feels he is too intense in their relationship. Determined to win her back, Dustin asks his best friend Tank to take Alexis on a deliberately terrible rebound date, which is part of Tank's side job, hoping this will make her return to him. Tank agrees reluctantly, but Alexis handles the situation better than expected, and Tank starts to develop genuine feelings for her. This puts Tank in a difficult position as he struggles between staying loyal to Dustin and his growing attraction to Alexis.

He asks his best friend Tank to take her on the worst rebound date imaginable - his side job - so that she will come running back to him, and Tank reluctantly agrees.
