He is overlooked at work, scorned by his mother, ignored by the woman of his dreams, and feeling powerless to change any of these things. The arrival of new co-worker James upsets the balance. James is both Simon's exact physical double and his opposite otherwise: he's a confident, charismatic ladies' man. To Simon's horror, James slowly starts taking over his life.
