Years ago, as a student at Detroitʼs West Lakefield High School, Ray Drecker was athletic, popular and destined for success. Today, as a West Lakefield teacher and coach of the varsity basketball team (which is on an unprecedented losing streak), heʼs underpaid, uninsured and embittered that his wife of 20 years left him for her dermatologist, Ronnie Haxon. After fire damages the rundown lakeside home he inherited from his parents, Rayʼs fortunes reach an all-time low when his twin children Darby and Damon, who had been living with him, move in with their mom and her smug husband. Lonely, run down and at witʼs end, Ray attends a self-help class, where the mantra is to identify a personal “winning tool” to market for financial success. After a not-so fulfilling encounter with fellow attendee Tanya Skagle, a would-be poet, Ray has a “eureka” moment. With the help of Tanya, the well-endowed Ray sets out to exploit his greatest asset in hopes of changing his fortunes.
Marketing Ray as a high-end “happiness consultant,” Tanya tracks down former law-firm colleague Lenore, who agrees to take Ray for a test ride in exchange for the names and numbers of wealthy women. Jessica’s obsessive behavior grates on her kids, who push Ray to fix his fire-damaged house. A contractor promises Ray a “wolf pack” discount for repairs, but money mismanagement has Ray strapped for cash. That could change after Ray’s session with Lenore – or so he and Tanya hope.
Ray’s fortunes, at low ebb after the Lenore debacle, sink further when his nosy neighbor Howard Koontz accuses him of public indecency. Fed up with Jessica’s meddling, Damon and Darby yearn to go back to their dad, but progress on the home repair front remains stalled. Likewise, Ray and Tanya’s frayed partnership seems to be dead in the water – until a last-minute proposal resurrects their dreams.
