Her equally lovely but far from meek room-mate? Or the beautiful and dynamic aerobics instructor he's recently taken up with?In the meantime, Brett's legendary Adonis-like features (as he calls them) get severely damaged when he ends up catching the beating of his life -- emotionally as well as physically -- before he finally nails the identity of the real killer!
