Hannah Steale, an inexperienced college student, interviews billionaire Christian Black for a school assignment.

Christian introduces Hannah to his version of S&M, which is portrayed through over-the-top slapstick and crude gags.

Despite Christian's "unorthodox" traits and extreme clumsiness from Hannah, they form a connection.
