Meet Jacob Gordon... and the people who contribute to his shortcomings. Actor Jacob Gordon (Wesley Taylor) can't seem to catch a break. Victimized by the grueling rejections of an ugly business, horny parents exploring their mid-life crisis, and a delusional boyfriend who needs constant babysitting, Jacob is lost. He tries to be 'good' and not give in to temptations. He tries to be 'open' and have an understanding of the people around him... but at the end of the day, Jacob Gordon is a doormat. His epic streak of bad luck might just change, however, when he gets cast in the new Broadway musical The Ice Queen — playing opposite stage and screen royalty Veronica Bailey.
