But Emily's mother is fixated on getting her married and has her sights set on Mark. There's only one solution, clearly: convince Mark to be in a fake relationship with her long enough to end her mom's meddling. He reluctantly agrees. With each fake date, though, Emily realizes that Mark's not quite what she assumed and maybe that argyle sweater isn't so ugly after all ... " --
