    Storyline

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      When the lead male characters sing "Can You Stand The Rain" to the female characters, their reactions are genuine as the director didn't tell the ladies which song the men would sing.
    • Goofs
      Canadian flags can be seen on a street, as Lance is driving an SUV prominently featuring a New Jersey license plate. Though the movie location was set in the United States, the Canada filming location was revealed by the flags.
    • Quotes
      • Candace: I'm just saying, Jordan's good people, you should get to know her.
      • Robyn: What's to know? She's career-obsessed and lives on her BlackBerry.
      • Candace: True, but she's not some ideal from a piece of fiction. Now, her man, on the other hand, is iconic. Mmm. If I went that way, that's what I'd get. A tall, vanilla swagger latte. I like, I like, I like.
