Introduction:

Abby richter (katherine heigl) is the producer of The Morning Show. She has been looking for the perfect man in her successful career. To this end, she specializes in investigating the information of her date. One day, the boss introduced a new colleague, Mike (gerard butler), to her program group. Abby is disgusted with his vulgar language.

At the same time, Abby meets Colin (Eric Winter), a smart, handsome and successful plastic surgeon who has just moved into the opposite room. Colin is the kind of bachelor that girls dream of, so naturally he becomes Abby's perfect husband.

Mike thought Abby couldn't get the surgeon's attention in his own way, so he volunteered to be Abby's "strategist" and told him the "ugly truth" of keeping men and women together. And Abby agreed because of his promise to "leave the show or not". With the help of "military adviser", Abby looks more charming, exudes the charm of women, and successfully dates Colin.

However, with the passage of time, there seems to be a subtle chemical reaction between Mike and Abby.
