Short filmTranscript
00:00Nick Marshall loves women, but in his own way.
00:06Growing up backstage in a chorus line dressing room, thanks to his showgirl mother,
00:11he was surrounded by half-dressed women from an early age.
00:14For his mother, nothing was more important than her son,
00:17and he quickly became the dancer's lucky charm.
00:20From childhood, Nick was showered with female attention,
00:22which turned him into a shameless ladies' man.
00:25He's convinced he knows everything there is to know about women.
00:28Every morning, his housekeeper, who he simply calls Babe,
00:32wakes him up while collecting dirty laundry, half-empty whiskey glasses, and leftover snacks,
00:39all mixed together with various pieces of women's clothing.
00:42Straight into the wash, they go.
00:44Nick never shows up at work before 10.
00:46He's an advertising executive, one of the best.
00:49And today is supposed to be his big day.
00:52Oh, I'm so sorry.
00:54Your hands are full. Let me get the door for you.
00:56His colleague Morgan and his ever-loyal secretaries are already congratulating him
01:00in anticipation of a well-deserved promotion.
01:03Nick walks into the office of his boss, Dan Wanamaker, ready to celebrate.
01:07But instead of a promotion, Dan delivers a curveball.
01:10Women are now dominating consumer sales.
01:13And that means the creative director position, which should have gone to Nick,
01:16will instead go to a woman.
01:18Just recently, advertising shark Darcy McGuire left her previous job,
01:22making her the perfect candidate.
01:24Nick is, of course, less than thrilled.
01:26But there's nothing he can do about it.
01:29Except perhaps wait for the right moment to outshine Darcy and take her spot.
01:33After this unpleasant conversation, Nick heads to the wedding of his ex-wife, Gigi.
01:38There, he gets another surprise.
01:39While Gigi and her new husband go on their honeymoon,
01:42Nick's 16-year-old daughter, Alex, will be staying with him.
01:45Their relationship is far from perfect.
01:47And neither of them is excited about this new living arrangement.
01:51When Nick returns to the office, Dan introduces the team to their new boss, Darcy McGuire.
01:56Wasting no time, Darcy takes control, handing out boxes filled with women's products.
02:00Everything from nail polish to pantyhose.
02:02Each employee is tasked with coming up with a marketing strategy
02:06for either one product or all of them by the next morning.
02:09Nick, who thought he had women all figured out,
02:11is about to realize he might not know them at all.
02:14At home, Nick drowns himself in wine,
02:16cranks up some music,
02:17and attempts to make sense of the pile of women's products in front of him.
02:21But things don't exactly go smoothly.
02:23Frustrated, he digs through his daughter, Alex's backpack,
02:26and finds a CD filled with teen girl pop anthems.
02:29After downing even more alcohol, he fully commits to the experiment.
02:33He slaps a poor cleansing strip on his nose,
02:36works mousse into his hair,
02:37applies mascara and nail polish,
02:39and, because he's already in too deep,
02:41decides to wax his leg.
02:43The pain is searing,
02:45but he powers through,
02:46and one, two, three.
02:51Topping it all off by squeezing into a pair of pantyhose.
02:54Right as he's about to try on a bra,
02:56Alex returns home with her boyfriend.
02:58A heated argument erupts.
03:00She accuses Nick of not caring about anyone but himself,
03:03pointing out that he doesn't even remember her boyfriend's name.
03:07Determined to prove her wrong,
03:08Nick suddenly recalls the name and rushes to tell her,
03:11only to step on a spilled container of bath beads,
03:14slip, and crash headfirst into a filled bathtub.
03:18To make matters worse,
03:19the hairdryer he was holding falls in right after him.
03:22The electric shock is strong enough to knock him out cold until morning.
03:25Nick is eventually woken up by the sound of Babe,
03:28his housekeeper grumbling as usual.
03:30But when he tells her to stop complaining,
03:32she insists she never said a word.
03:34Honey, make me a little bagel with cream cheese.
03:36You know I can't think on an empty stomach.
03:38For your information, I'm not even hungry.
03:42Who said you were?
03:43Confused but groggy, he leaves for work.
03:45As always, Flo, the hotel doorman,
03:47calls him a cab, cracking her usual dirty jokes.
03:50Except this time, Nick swears he hears the joke in his head.
03:54You're welcome, my little sweet ass.
03:56Before she even opens her mouth,
03:58choosing to walk instead,
03:59he soon finds himself in a crowd of women.
04:01And that's when the terrifying realization hits him.
04:04He can actually hear their thoughts.
04:06At the office, the mental noise intensifies.
04:08His female co-worker's thoughts come at him like a relentless tsunami.
04:12He's such a schmuck.
04:13And none of them are flattering.
04:15The suave lady's man image he had of himself crumbles within minutes.
04:19He even notices Aaron, the quiet document courier,
04:22whose mind is filled with despair.
04:25She feels invisible.
04:26And worse, she's contemplating s***.
04:28Strangely, the only people who give him a moment of silence are his secretaries.
04:32Turns out, there's absolutely nothing going on in their heads.
04:36Panicked, Nick confides in Morgan,
04:38but his friend assumes it's just another one of Nick's elaborate jokes.
04:42Dragging him to a meeting led by Darcy,
04:44Morgan urges him to get his head in the game.
04:47At the meeting, everyone is expected to pitch ideas
04:49for marketing the women's products from their assignment.
04:52Sticking to his usual style,
04:54Nick suggests an ad featuring
04:56a naked woman standing under a waterfall to sell lipstick.
05:00However, before anyone speaks,
05:02he already knows the reaction.
05:03His female colleagues mentally tear the idea apart.
05:07He goes silent.
05:08Desperate to salvage the moment,
05:09he borrows an idea he overhears from a colleague.
05:12A woman who takes headache pills,
05:14not because she actually has a headache,
05:16but just to avoid sleeping with her husband.
05:18Finding the concept interesting,
05:20he pitches it to the group.
05:21Darcy acknowledges the creativity,
05:23but doesn't seem too impressed.
05:24While she gives Nick a polite compliment,
05:27he knows the truth.
05:28He completely bombed.
05:29Nick's brain is in overdrive
05:30from the constant flood of women's thoughts.
05:33He can't think straight,
05:34can't focus,
05:35and certainly can't relax.
05:37Desperate for peace,
05:38he heads home
05:39and immediately ruins Alex's night
05:41by kicking out her prom date.
05:43Then,
05:43he repeats the same ridiculous self-care routine
05:46from the night before.
05:47Face strips,
05:48mousse,
05:48pantyhose,
05:49the whole deal.
05:50But this time,
05:51he takes it a step further.
05:52Armed with a hairdryer,
05:54he steps out onto the balcony
05:55during a thunderstorm,
05:56hoping to short-circuit his new gift
05:58with a well-placed lightning strike.
06:00And the universe
06:01does not disappoint.
06:03A bolt of lightning
06:04zaps the hairdryer,
06:05sending Nick crashing to the floor
06:07unconscious.
06:08The next morning,
06:09he wakes up hopeful.
06:10But there's a problem.
06:11He can't test if his ability is gone,
06:13because for the first time in history,
06:15there isn't a single woman in sight.
06:18I need a woman.
06:18No babe,
06:19no flow,
06:20no one.
06:21Determined to find out,
06:22he heads to the nearest supermarket,
06:24a place teeming with women.
06:25The second he steps inside,
06:27their thoughts bombard him.
06:28The ability is still there.
06:30Panicking,
06:30he makes a beeline
06:31for his old couple's therapist,
06:33the one he and his ex-wife
06:34used to see.
06:35Using a series of weird,
06:36but effective tricks,
06:37he proves to her
06:38that he can really hear
06:39what women are thinking.
06:41Instead of freaking out,
06:42the therapist offers him
06:43a mind-blowing revelation.
06:44This isn't a curse.
06:46But this is phenomenal.
06:47It's a superpower.
06:49With the ability
06:49to hear women's thoughts,
06:51Nick can influence them,
06:52manipulate them,
06:53and get exactly what he wants.
06:55Nick doesn't need to hear that twice.
06:57The world can be yours.
06:58He immediately puts the advice
07:00to good use,
07:01setting his sights
07:01on the one woman
07:02who's resisted his charm for ages,
07:05Lola, the barista.
07:06She's secretly crazy about him,
07:08but had long written him off
07:09as a lost cause.
07:11Now,
07:11with a little insider knowledge,
07:13Nick effortlessly says
07:14all the right things,
07:15and boom,
07:16Lola agrees to go on a date.
07:18At work,
07:18he works his magic
07:19on one female co-worker
07:21after another.
07:22Women who once dismissed him
07:23now swoon.
07:24One even thinks,
07:26Wow.
07:26Why do I always feel like
07:27he's checking me out?
07:29The newfound attention
07:30is exhilarating.
07:31With his confidence soaring,
07:33Nick turns his focus
07:34to the real challenge,
07:36Darcy.
07:36He's dead set
07:37on forcing her out of the company.
07:39Thanks to her private thoughts,
07:40he learns that Nike
07:41is searching for a new ad agency.
07:43It's a massive contract
07:44and Nick wants it for himself,
07:46but Darcy warns him.
07:48Nike's focus is on women's apparel.
07:50The pitch needs to be perfect
07:51and they have to think like a woman.
07:54Confident in his new ability,
07:55Nick assures her
07:56he's got it covered.
07:57As they brainstorm ideas,
07:58he listens in on her thoughts
07:59and voices them
08:00before she can.
08:01Darcy is impressed.
08:03At home,
08:04Alex and her friends
08:04aren't too thrilled
08:05about having Nick around,
08:07but he quickly turns things around
08:08by promising to take Alex shopping
08:10for the perfect prom dress.
08:12That evening,
08:13Nick meets up with Lola
08:14for their date.
08:15Things are going smoothly
08:16until they head back to her place.
08:18The problem?
08:19He can hear everything she's thinking.
08:20And no matter how attractive she is,
08:22it's impossible to concentrate
08:23when her mind is running
08:24a mile a minute.
08:25But Nick is not one
08:27to back down from a challenge.
08:28Instead of letting the moment slip,
08:30he adapts,
08:31listening to exactly what Lola wants
08:33and doing everything accordingly.
08:35The result?
08:35Absolute fireworks.
08:36Lola is left speechless,
08:38completely satisfied,
08:39and for the first time,
08:41Nick experiences what it's like
08:43to truly please a woman.
08:45With his mind set
08:46on landing the Nike contract,
08:47Nick starts using his ability everywhere,
08:50fine-tuning his approach
08:51to appeal to women's deepest desires.
08:53Even the co-workers
08:54who used to roll their eyes at him
08:55are now completely charmed.
08:58But something unexpected happens.
09:01While working closely with Darcy,
09:02Nick starts to admire her.
09:04She's sharp, creative,
09:05and incredibly good
09:07at what she does.
09:08Instead of just stealing her ideas,
09:09he starts complimenting them,
09:11building on her thoughts,
09:12and working as a real partner.
09:14Their collaboration produces
09:16some of the best ideas
09:17the agency has ever seen.
09:19And Darcy?
09:19She starts seeing Nick
09:21in a whole new light.
09:23Nick and Darcy started spending
09:24more time together after work,
09:26their conversations flowing effortlessly.
09:28His relationship with Alex
09:29was improving too,
09:31and he even took her shopping
09:32for a prom dress,
09:33finally embracing the role
09:34of a present father.
09:35While helping her pick a dress,
09:36he overheard a thought
09:37that nearly made his heart stop.
09:39Alex had decided to sleep
09:41with her boyfriend after prom.
09:43Determined to be a responsible parent,
09:44he sat her down for the talk.
09:46But Alex, unimpressed,
09:48shut him down immediately.
09:49Her mother had already
09:50covered everything,
09:51and she saw no need for Nick
09:52to suddenly play the role
09:54of the caring dad.
09:55Frustrated, Nick spent the evening
09:56sulking in front of the TV.
09:58Just as he was settling in,
10:00Darcy called,
10:00and on impulse,
10:02he invited her out for drinks.
10:03Over cocktails,
10:04she opened up about her divorce,
10:06explaining that it had been
10:07the reason she left her last job.
10:10She and her ex-husband
10:11had worked together,
10:11and after their split,
10:13staying in the same workplace
10:14had become unbearable.
10:16The night ended on a good note,
10:17with a kiss before they parted ways.
10:19Darcy had hesitated for a moment,
10:21wanting to invite Nick over,
10:22but he unknowingly cut her off
10:24before she could say anything.
10:25Returning home,
10:26Nick found an unexpected visitor,
10:28Lola.
10:29For six days,
10:29she had been restless,
10:30waiting for him to call,
10:32confused and upset
10:33that he hadn't reached out.
10:34In her thoughts,
10:35she was trying to make sense of it,
10:37finally settling on the idea
10:38that he must be gay.
10:40You talk to me like a woman,
10:41you think like a woman,
10:42Nick!
10:43Admit it,
10:43you're totally and completely gay!
10:45It was the only explanation
10:46that made sense to her.
10:48No straight man could possibly
10:50understand a woman so well.
10:51In her mind,
10:52she was pleading for him
10:53to just admit it,
10:55so she could move on.
10:56Nick,
10:57seeing an easy way out of the situation,
10:59confirmed her assumption,
11:01letting her walk away
11:01satisfied with her own theory.
11:03I'm gay.
11:06At work,
11:06Nick overheard Aaron's thoughts again.
11:08She still felt invisible.
11:10Curious,
11:11he asked the secretaries about her
11:12and learned that she had once dreamed
11:14of being a copywriter.
11:15She had even applied for a position
11:17at the company,
11:18but her application had been dismissed
11:19without a second thought
11:21by none other than Nick himself.
11:23Later that day,
11:24the long-awaited Nike presentation
11:25finally took place.
11:27Darcy insisted that Nick
11:28should be the one to lead it.
11:29Despite his attempts to convince her
11:31that most of the ideas
11:32had come from her,
11:33she disagreed,
11:34confident in his ability to deliver.
11:36The presentation went flawlessly,
11:38and Nike was thrilled.
11:40That night,
11:41guilt weighed heavily on Nick's mind.
11:42He began writing a message to Darcy,
11:44ready to confess
11:45that he had taken most of her ideas.
11:47But before he could send it,
11:49she arrived at his door,
11:50inviting him to see her new apartment.
11:52They spent the evening together,
11:54growing even closer.
11:55The next morning,
11:56feeling victorious,
11:57Nick walked into the office
11:58only to be blindsided
12:00by unexpected news.
12:01Nike had agreed to sign the contract,
12:04but Dan had fired Darcy.
12:05Shocked,
12:06Nick argued that she was the reason
12:07for the campaign's success,
12:08but Dan refused to reconsider.
12:10Determined to set things right,
12:12Nick rushed to find Darcy
12:13and tell her the truth.
12:14But on his way,
12:15another crisis surfaced.
12:16Erin had not shown up to work,
12:18and there had been no word from her.
12:19A sinking feeling took hold of him.
12:21Worried that something might have happened,
12:23he changed course
12:24and headed straight to her apartment
12:25in Chinatown.
12:26The unfamiliar streets felt like a maze,
12:28but a kind, elderly Chinese woman
12:30pointed him in the right direction.
12:32With every step,
12:33he hoped he wasn't too late.
12:35A sudden flash of lightning
12:36struck a nearby transformer,
12:38sending sparks flying
12:39as the wires crackled with energy.
12:42At that moment,
12:43something inside Nick shifted.
12:44He could feel it,
12:45though he couldn't quite explain
12:47what had changed.
12:48Reaching Erin's apartment,
12:49he found the door slightly open.
12:51Stepping inside,
12:52his eyes immediately landed
12:54on an empty pill bottle
12:55and a goodbye note.
12:56His stomach twisted in fear
12:58until Erin suddenly appeared behind him,
13:00tennis racket raised,
13:02ready to defend herself
13:03against the unexpected intruder.
13:05After exchanging a few words,
13:07Nick realized something shocking.
13:08His ability was gone.
13:10The constant flood of women's thoughts
13:12had vanished.
13:12For the first time,
13:14in what felt like forever,
13:15there was nothing but silence.
13:17Despite the unusual circumstances,
13:19he wasted no time getting to the point.
13:21He told Erin that he wanted to hire her
13:23as a copywriter,
13:24giving her the opportunity
13:25she had been denied before.
13:26Erin, taken aback but grateful,
13:29agreed.
13:29For the rest of the day,
13:30Nick desperately tried
13:31to get in touch with Darcy,
13:32but every call was intercepted
13:34by her assistant, Tanya.
13:36Meanwhile, his ex-wife, Gigi,
13:37called to tell him
13:38that Alex had been crying all night
13:40and had called her multiple times.
13:43Devastated.
13:43Without hesitation,
13:44Nick rushed to her prom.
13:46At the venue,
13:47Alex had locked herself in the bathroom
13:48and refused to come out.
13:50She had made the decision
13:51not to sleep with her boyfriend,
13:53after all,
13:54and he had immediately dumped her.
13:55Heartbroken and humiliated,
13:57she wanted to disappear.
13:58Nick, determined to be there
14:00for his daughter,
14:00reassured her that she had made
14:02the right choice.
14:03After finally calming her down,
14:04he took her home,
14:05where she curled up in bed,
14:07exhausted from the emotional night.
14:09But Nick couldn't sleep.
14:10His mind kept circling back to Darcy.
14:12He had to make things right.
14:14In the middle of the night,
14:14he found himself
14:15standing outside her apartment.
14:17When she opened the door,
14:18he didn't hold back.
14:20He confessed everything.
14:21How he had used her ideas
14:22to try to push her out of the company.
14:24How he had let his ambition
14:25get in the way
14:26of doing the right thing.
14:28And how, somewhere along the way,
14:29he had fallen in love with her.
14:31Nick wasn't the kind of man
14:32to admit his mistakes,
14:33let alone wear his heart on his sleeve.
14:35But there he was,
14:36standing in front of her,
14:37asking her to come back,
14:39not just to the company,
14:40but to him.
14:41Darcy saw the sincerity in his eyes.
14:43She realized that,
14:44for once in his life,
14:45Nick wasn't trying to charm
14:47his way out of trouble.
14:48He had changed.
14:49And maybe,
14:50for the first time,
14:51he needed saving
14:52more than anyone else.
14:53Knowing she loved him too,
14:55she chose to forgive him.
14:56As she pulled him into a kiss,
14:58Nick responded without hesitation,
15:00sealing the moment
15:01that had been a long time coming.
