The film is a multi-dimensional interface between comic book artist Emma Boyles (drawing Deacon's reality), novelist Michelle (writing Boyles' reality), and film director Edward Deacon (filming Michelle's reality). Each lives in a separate reality but authors a story about one of the others.
Emma, working at a sex doll factory in Toronto, fantasizes about having larger breasts and undergoes augmentation surgery, only to regret her choice.
Edward has a big Spanish penis that Emma makes small because of her frustration at not having the money to have her implants removed.
Things get worse as Michelle thinks of original ways of making money such as winning the lotto. She ends up choosing a mail drug drop meant to be for the personal trainer next door.
