Tim Willows is considered to be the main cog in the machinery of his own advertising company Manning, Willows, and Claire. His wife Sally is his exact opposite, pampering herself in their home all day. After one extraodinarily stressful day at the office, Tim comes home to find Sally in the bath, and they start arguing like never before. In the heat of the moment, Tim expresses a wish to switch places with his lazy wife, to see how she goes about her days at nearly half speed. The Indian idol on the wall overhears their wishes and makes them come true.
