Jake drives himself crazy trying to one-up his biggest rival, super publicist Peter Beth, and he thinks he's finally done it when he convinces a glamorous actress to be his date for Peter's birthday bash. Meanwhile, when Patrick finds out that Peter is David Blaine's publicist, he's determined to crash the party.
Life moves at a non-stop pace for Jake Phillips, a New-York based publicist-to-the-stars who's the key player at Magnum PR Agency. Handsome, incredibly well-dressed, he's on call 24/7 to meet the needs of his A-list clientele. Whether it's a macho action star caught in an embarrassing clinch, an older actress trying to dump her much-younger (and even more famous) boyfriend, or two warring teen divas - Jake is there to spin the facts and control his client's image, a task that often leads him into unexpectedly funny situations. Complicating his work life even further is his boss, Naomi, a woman in a people profession who frankly can't stand people, and who often uses Jake to act as her go-between when things get too personal with the staff or the clients.
