(Goldie Hawn), believes that he is a married man and
father. Appalled after Toni is rescued from a suicide
attempt by her young writer-neighbor Igor (Rick
Lenz), Julian promises to marry her. However, refus-
ing to be a “home-breaker”,Toni insists on first meet-
ing his wife. Desperate, Julian turns to Stephanie, who
agrees to pose as his faithless wife, while Harvey (Jack

thinking they are married,Toni is the first to realize
Julian and his receptionist really do love each other.
