Frederick is bachelor in his early 50's. As a proclaimed codependent he limits his personal contacts with women to sex-dating to avoid any kind of involvement that might lead to emotional dependency. He has distanced himself so far from his own emotions that he thinks of himself not as I but as You. One day at the library he hears the voice of a woman telling a story of a mermaid and a dragon - of all things! - with the repeated word Wonderful!, which echoes in his mind. That evening he has scheduled a meeting with his newest sex date at a restaurant. She never shows up, but Frederick is served a dish that evokes in him the taste and feeling of wonderful! Under the subliminal spell of wonderful he seeks to find this elusive experience through the art of cooking and the thrills of impersonal sex. It finds him in the persons of his one friend Matt, a poet, and Matt's friend Sonya, a story teller, who is also a superb cook. Through the subtle manipulations of these two creative spirits Frederick's defenses against personal involvement are breaking down, his privacy is invaded, and his life is turned into a comedy of errors.
