      The last text Daisy Parsloe received was from her smart fridge about some mouldy potato salad. She's not doing well at work, her love life is haphazard at best and her elderly mother seems to be losing her mind. And now, apparently even the appliances are judging her life choices. What Daisy doesn't know is that the appliances are also plotting. They've joined together, across the internet of things, to nudge Daisy in the right direction. But it isn't long before their well-meaning interference starts to get noticed and the race is on to find Daisy's Mr Right before the plugs are pulled.

      If she thinks you're someone else, why disappoint her? So when a beautiful woman who Charlie's never met before approaches him in a bar and asks if he's Matthew, he can't help saying yes. After all, Charlie has based a career on this sort of simple deceit. But this and a small work-related incident - the death of an ageing gangster during the filming of the TV show Charlie that produces - both conspire to make Charlie realise that being himself might not be such a bad idea. That is, if he ever gets the chance again...

    • Charles ist ein notorischer Lügner. Berufsbedingt quasi. Denn er veräppelt Menschen ganz professionell. Als Producer einer Art „Verstehen-Sie-Spaß“-Fernsehshow. Als er zufällig in einer Bar in ein Blind Date hineinplatzt und ihn eine schöne Unbekannte fragt, ob er Matthew sei, reagiert er erwartungsgemäß: Er sagt ja. Klar. Und verliebt sich. Klar. Die Ereignisse überstürzen sich, als ein alternder Gangster mit nicht sehr lustigem Familienanhang in seiner Show verstirbt. Schluss mit lustig! Charles ergreift die Flucht und muss lernen, ein Mal in seinem Leben endlich er selbst zu sein. Lamm oder Mann sein, das ist hier die Frage.
