When a “marriage of convenience” brings together a “numbers person” and a “stickler for rules,” how can a cold “Marriage Performance Agreement” calculate the limitless solutions to love? The gift he gives her isn't jewelry, but a “value-preserving certificate of deposit” calculated to account for inflation over the next thirty years. Her heart skipping a beat isn't an accident, but the only emotional bug in a precisely programmed system.
From “compliant” civility to the thrill of “breaching the contract,” watch two souls who despise uncertainty discover, amid all the clauses and conditions, the one answer about each other they can be sure of.
