Storyline Intro:
Joanne, a fashion photographer, helps her friend, Lane Daniels (Hilary Duff), an aspiring writer, get in to see Kate White, primary editor at Cosmopolitan Magazine,
to pitch a story idea - which doesn't go well. On the way out the door,
Kate and Lane discuss how hard it is to find a good man, which leads to
Kate assigning Lane the task of joining the business world to find a
man amongst all those eligible 'downtown' bachelors, and writing an
article about that. She is to go under-cover and look for her 'magic
man' (one for which she has a lengthy checklist of desirable attributes,
as opposed to her friend Joanne's checklist which consists of: 1>
breathing, and 2> through 7> cute). With a fraudulent résumé, Lane
bluffs, bumbles, and sabotages her way into getting an administrative
assistant position in the Corporate Strategic Planning department of a
major investment firm. She is to work for Tom Rinehart (Michael McMillian), Managing Director, who is a bit of a quirky 'stick in the mud' when it comes to personal 'risk-taking'. Next.....
