After being invited to a father daughter picnic by a Dean of a prestigious University, a sleazy community college professor extorts a struggling older student to impersonate a Dr. so he can reconnect with his estranged daughter by convincing her that he has cancer.

I like the new romantic comedy concept. It also has space for all characters to grow. The father to suddenly realise that there is more to life than academic stardom and starts behaving in a father way rather than selfishly. The meek coerced student who has the been the doormat to realise that he is worthy. And for the daughter to act less judgemental around people and forgive both men.

When his estranged daughter reveals to her father that his meek research assistant is from a wealthy family, a selfish tenure professor tries to exploit that budding relationship to save his university department budget.

It is one of those movies where the initial goal of the very selfish protagonist changes to the point of being the opposite. In?Rain Man Tom Cruise's character is a selfish douche bag of the highest order, in the end he has changed to become a decent living, caring brother. From trying to get his late father fortune to give it back to his brother.

Why will an audience want to? invest time and money in a movie about? a thoroughly unsympathetic "sleazy" character who manipulates everyone with lies and threats?
