Wife Five

Harry Spain is a man with a problem; well several problems actually, and all of them ex-wives. Blondes Abby, Gloria, and Jessica were all once married to Harry, and now enjoy a platonic friendship with him; spending weekends together at his beach-front property in Malibu. They sunbathe, gossip, and hang out on the beach, until one weekend when their perfect existence is threatened by the arrival of Kimberly; a woman who is not only much younger than themselves, but is a brunette too. Scared that this interloper is about to steal much more than Harry's heart, the three concoct a plan to rid themselves of her, until the arrival of Harry's first ex-wife, Lila, threatens to interrupt their plans. As if that isn't enough, housekeeper Mattie is in the very thick of the action; which ensures that a happy weekend at the beach quickly turns into a boiling pot of anxieties, mid-life crises and clashing personalities. Will Harry survive the weekend from hell, or will his ex-wives change his life forever?
