Luke Pennington
A circle of friends in San Francisco learns the hard way that it's not all hugs and kisses in the game of love and that everyone needs a strategy to score. Bookish biologist Simon (Clayne Crawford - Fox's "24" and 'A Walk to Remember') lusts after Jane (Sarah Wright - 'The House Bunny'), a blonde beauty who barely knows he exists. Against the advice of his womanizing friend, Lorenzo (Warren Christie - ABC's "October Road"), Simon decides to make Jane jealous by dating his lab partner, Trese (Judy Marte - 'Raising Victor Vargas'). But every part of Simon's plan falls apart, trapping him between the pursuit of a hopeless dream and unexpected, real feelings for someone. Also starring Kel Mitchell ("Kenan and Kel", 'Good Burger'), Lynn Chen ('Saving Face'), and Jill Bennett ("Dante's Cove").
