Taking Care of Business

“You are who you pretend to be.”

Jimmy Dworski (Jim Belushi) is a convict with a few days left on his sentence and one thing on his mind, the Cubs game he means to see. Then he finds the filofax of Spencer Barnes (Charles Grodin), an uptight advertising executive whose whole life is written inside it, and Jimmy starts living it for him. Arthur Hiller sets the two men moving toward the same deal, and Spencer, with no wallet and no schedule, has to get his life back before it closes.
