Plot: Alan Fletcher is a man who, with the help of his 15 year old neighbor, tracks down his long-lost HS teacher, who he had a huge crush on when he was in High School. It is a story about human sexuality. It is about Alan's struggle to reconcile his memories of the flirtation with his teacher, knowing that she couldn't possibly have been flirting back...or was she? it is about his struggle with his attraction to his 15 year old neighbor, which he obviously cannot act on, his struggle to find meaning in any sexual encounter with a woman his own age. It is about Patty's (the 15 year old) struggle to enter into womanhood and decide what kind of sexual woman she wants to be, and of Saffron's (her 15 year old classmate) struggle to reconcile her very grown up sexual desires with her 15 year old curfews and rules. It is about Miss Shellagh's (the now 60 year old teacher) struggle with the loss of her vibrant sexuality with age, and the reality of a sexless marriage.

Plot: Conspiracy. Power. Sex. Golf? Ah, the Pennytree Golf Club. 18 holes at its finest. If you played there in the late-70's. Now run-down and nearly deserted, only a few faithful duffers keep club owner Josh Pennytree and his drop-dead-gorgeous granddaughter Liberty in business. All the other customers fled to the Bentwood Country Club nearby; awesome to behold, even if it's run by sleazy, stuck-up land baron Simon Roosevelt. Stealing the former Pennytree crowd isn't enough for Simon; he's scheming to take over the Pennytree property for a lucrative condo complex. Liberty gets wise to Simon's scam - and gets fightin' mad. Though Liberty can't compete with deep pockets, she CAN compete with a new staff of gorgeous babes and bold hunks! Scouting the dance and strip clubs and finding the hottest bodies on the beach, Liberty gives Pennytree a new start. New services, guaranteed to do absolutely nothing for your handicap but leave you wanting more. Hot uniforms, massages, and the legendary cart wash, even though golf carts don't REALLY get that dirty (wink, wink!)...not that there's anything wrong with that! Busloads of new customers suddenly appear, and the money's rolling in. Even Simon's spies are giving in to their wildest desires at Pennytree. Trouble's still ahead, as misunderstandings arise between Liberty and her boyfriend, handsome co-worker Neil Walker. Simon finally raises the ante with a winner-take-all challenge: one round of golf. Bentwood's best vs Pennytree's best. Winner gets the loser's property. It's up to legendary golf pro Dwayne Rider to save the day for Pennytree... if he can still hold a club after a hearty breakfast of bourbon...hold the eggs. Bentwood's star player - Steve Shank, inclined to play dirty and a weakness for beautiful women. Who will get the stroke... and who will get the shaft? Golf will never be the same!
