Synopsis by Sandra Brennan

In this romantic comedy, a philandering husband buys his lover an expensive necklace. When she accidentally breaks the clasp, he takes it to have it repaired. Unfortunately, his wife finds the bauble and believes that he bought it for her. She then apologizes for accusing him of adultery. Unable to bear the thought of breaking her heart with the truth, the cheating lout decides to fake an injury so he can collect insurance money and pay to buy his lover a new necklace. Unfortunately, things go awry and mayhem ensues.
