      Troppi MA nella vita di Tracey Spadolini. Un lavoro per una rinomata agenzia pubblicitaria di New York, MA di fatto nessuna considerazione e nessuna responsabilità. Un perfetto guardaroba 'all black', MA solo perché qualsiasi altro colore la farebbe sembrare una balena. Un fidanzato niente male (anzi, diciamola tutta, da sogno), MA lontano da lei anni luce. Un amico impagabile, MA solo un amico, appunto. È il momento di cancellare tutti i MA. E magari anche qualche chilo, qualche sigaretta e qualche drink di troppo...
