Synopsis by Clarke Fountain

Leo Blockman (Scott Baker) was an obnoxious male-chauvinist pig, the sort of man who would call out sexually suggestive remarks to women on the street. After he is chased into the Hudson river by one of the irate women he has insulted, and drowns, he comes out changed. At first he doesn't realize it and is as foul-mouthed and obnoxious as ever, but he's become a good looking woman, Cleo (Jane Hamilton. His problems are compounded when he/she is hit on by the same sort of lowlifes that he once was.
