Tim and his friend Can go to bars and lie to girls about one of them being terminally ill so they can gain sympathy and be guaranteed a "hook up" for the night. Tim meets Marie hooks up with her, but of course, they fall in love.

Although Marie still believes that Tim is terminally ill, Edda knows that Tim is faking.—Alyssa M. Perez
