Don Tillman a un gros problème. Ce n'est pas son incapacité à vivre en société. Ni ses idées arrêtées sur à peu près tout (à commencer par le homard au dîner, le mardi). Non, le vrai souci de Don, brillant professeur de génétique, c'est le «Problème Epouse». Sur 100 individus de sexe féminin, 100 ne répondent absolument pas à la liste de critères scrupuleusement établie par lui - et Rosie, étudiante le jour, serveuse la nuit, encore moins que les autres... Et c'est bien là que le théorème se complique...
The Wife Project is complete, and Don and Rosie are happily married and living in New York. But they're about to face a new challenge because -- surprise! -- Rosie is pregnant. Don sets about learning the protocols of becoming a father, but his unusual research style gets him into trouble with the law. Fortunately his best friend Gene is on hand to offer advice: he's left Claudia and moved in with Don and Rosie. As Don tries to schedule time for pregnancy research, getting Gene and Claudia to reconcile, servicing the industrial refrigeration unit that occupies half his apartment, helping Dave the Baseball Fan save his business, and staying on the right side of Lydia the social worker, he almost misses the biggest problem of all: he might lose Rosie when she needs him the most.
