To make matters worse, with his friends having to deal with their own quite peculiar problems, there doesn't seem to be anybody who could possibly help the lady-killer out of his identity crisis: Vince (Oliver Fleischer) finds his wife in Tom's bed, Luke (Johannes Allmayer) learns from Tom's mother (Corinna Harfouch) – of all people – that no sex isn't the answer either, Paule (Anna Thalbach) falls in love with a suit (Michael Lott) and turns from the classical "buddy" to a seductive femme fatale. On top of that Tom's boss Rolf (Armin Rohde) reveals that the agency stands on the verge of bankruptcy. Hardly surprising that Tom starts to neglect his special "how-to-avoid-relationships" – rules…
