Plot summary

Married couple Jeff and Audrey have just learned their next door neighbor, Jennifer, has become engaged to her boyfriend, Adam. But when Jeff tries to give Adam advice, he develops doubt about the impending engagement. Jeff inadvertently starts a fight with Audrey about an old bicycle. Jennifer fixes up Adam's best friend, Russell, with her friend Karen ( Lauren Stamile ) because she believes the right woman could change his habit of being a dedicated womanizer. Adam and Jen make up after hearing the conversation of an elderly couple ( Gloria LeRoy and Don Perry). Russell somewhat surprisingly ends up in bed not with Karen, but with a waitress (Audra Blaser).
