In Earnest is a story of lies, deceit, and too many people named Ernest. Follow awkward, rich-boy Jack as he struggles to placate his demanding, reputation-obsessed girlfriend and her terrifying mother. Meanwhile, his player best friend, Algy, causes no end of trouble with his drunken escapades, obsession with fine suits and food, music addiction, and less-than-gentlemanly intentions towards Jack's beautiful friend, Cecily.
