Homeless gigolo Nikki (Ashton Kutcher) lives in Los Angeles drifting from relationship to relationship without a job and a home. He preys on women who have money to provide for him. After meeting Samantha (Anne Heche) at a club he moves in with her, using his looks and sexual prowess.
While Sam is out of town he meets a waitress named Heather (Margarita Levieva). He enlists his friend Harry (Sebastian Stan) to help him get Heather interested but she doesn't fall for his games and though they go on a date she leaves Nikki to go elsewhere. Soon after Heather unexpectedly shows up in Nikki's pool and they end up having sex but Nikki gets mad when moving Heather's car in the morning which really is her "boyfriend's" and she told him she was single. Meanwhile Nikki has begun cheating on Sam, first with his friend Emily (Rachel Blanchard), then with Christina (Sonia Rockwell). Sam catches him with Christina and gets angry at him, but they make up and have an uneasy arrangement where she will ignore his infidelity. However this arrangement proves too difficult and she soon throws him out.
