Synopsis:

A smooth operating, womanizing black man is put to the test by his sister and her best friend when they invite all the ladies in his black book to a pool party. But when he, in his charming way, escapes unscathed, he begins to make the moves on his sister's friend, almost succeeding until the one girl he really has true feelings for shows up at the door.
