Since having a baby, provocative disc jockey Jimmy (Dan Cortese) and his wife, Beth (Bianca Kajlich), have fallen into a droll routine. It's been nearly five months since they've had sex, and neither of them have gotten a night out since baby Otis was born. After a long night, Jimmy yawns on-air, which makes his coworkers argue that he's ""losing his edge"" - an argument that's solidified when he skips out on a long-awaited bachelor party so that Beth can have a night out with the girls. But his buddies have other plans - they crash his night of baby-sitting, moving the bachelor party to his apartment.
