Cooper has trouble making good choices. Unemployed, uneducated and with a taste for cheap beer, it's no surprise that he lives in a soon to be condemned industrial building. Enter Rita; a vixen, a stripper (stage name Electra) and worst of all a liar. Rita is the last women any sane man would want to fall in love with. Of course Cooper can't help himself. Two weeks after their first encounter, Cooper and Rita are sharing his rundown seedy apartment. After Cooper discovers that Rita has been cheating on him (repeatedly), he forces his brother Jake, (a perpetual trouble maker), to help him catch her in the act. Using a video camera to document the action, the brothers come up against a hurdle neither was expecting: Rita's temper Because he "invaded her privacy", Rita ends her relationship with Cooper. Cooper is crushed, and Jake is amused. Despite the reality of Rita being a gallivanting floozy, Cooper can't get over the fact that he is hopelessly in love with her.
