By day, Brandon is a successful business man in New York City. By night, he feeds his compulsive sex addiction by engaging in one night stands, prostitutes and cyber sex, as well as habitual masturbation. No one knows of his double as he keeps it well under control.
His sister, Sissy, is a jazz singer who frequently gigs. Brandon goes to see one of her performances with his co workers and is very impressed. He is not so impressed, however, when Sissy finds him at the end of her concert and begs to stay at his condo for a few days, so she can get her life back on track.
Like Brandon, Sissy also leads a double life but unlike her brother, Sissy craves the attention of a father figure in her life. When Sissy moves in, Brandon realises just how shameful his life is and so begins an attempt to cleanse his system and lead a normal life.
