Kirstie Alley is at the end of her rope. After years of being on top, with a hit show in Cheers & Veronica's Closet, she has hit rock bottom because she is now fat - almost 300 pounds according to tabloids. Kirstie, desperate to rekindle the fame she once had off of Star magazine, requests a development meeting with Jeff Zucker for a project she has been thinking up. During this time of woe and anticipation for her, she seeks a man, and meets a ""big black guy"" who makes her feel needed and wanted.
