Nick Marshall, Playboy and Hot Shot in advertising, thinks he's God's gift to women. After a little accident, he discovers that he is suddenly able to hear what women really think. First, Nick is pretty disappointed when he discovers that his beloved macho behaviour does not exactly contribute to being desired. Then, his upcoming dream position in the company is being given to a new team member: Darcy, not only a woman, but a man-eating one, also is a very talented ad expert. So, Nick decides to sabotage his new boss by reading her thoughts and selling her ideas as his own. Unfortunately, love gets in his way.

Morgan tells Nick (Mel Gibson) that he "sounds like the guy from Shine (1996)." Geoffrey Rush, the actor in Shine (1996), was Mel Gibson's roommate in the 80s in Australia.

Nick Marshall:
What's the difference between a wife and a job? After 10 years a job still sucks.

Continuity: In the nightclub when Darcy and Nick are talking, her hair keeps changing. One moment parts of it are over her shoulder, then it's all back, then it's halfway.
