Plot

Carly Whitten (Cameron Diaz), a New York attorney, has started a relationship with Mark King (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau), a handsome and charismatic businessman she’s been having sex with for eight weeks. Carly, planning to introduce Mark to her father, Frank (Don Johnson), is upset that Mark has to go out of town on account of a “flood” at his Connecticut home, missing their dinner. However, her dad encourages her to go to his house anyway. So, Carly dresses up in a promiscuous outfit and heads to Mark’s house to seduce him. However, she is horrified to meet Mark’s wife, Kate (Leslie Mann), whom she’d originally assumed to be Mark’s housekeeper. Thrown for a loop by this revelation, Carly accidentally breaks one of Kate’s garden urns, making up a weak excuse as to why she’s there before staggering home, embarrassed and in shock.

The next day, Kate shows up at Carly’s law firm, having found her contact details in Mark’s phone book. Carly informs her that Mark has been cheating on both of them but promises the panicked Kate she had no idea Mark was married. Initially annoyed by Kate’s constant presence at her apartment or work, Carly begins to warm to her after a wild sleepover and a boozy heart to heart. Kate then discovers that Mark is still seeing another woman, who she thinks is Carly secretly continuing her previous relationship with Mark. She confronts Carly about this and the two argue before realising that Mark is seeing a third woman as both Carly and Kate have been refusing sex with him.

Carly and Kate follow Mark and travel to The Hamptons, where they stay at the house of Kate’s brother, Phil (Taylor Kinney) who is immediately attracted to Carly. The duo spies on Mark and find him with his mistress, Amber, (Kate Upton) a gorgeous 22 year old, on the beach, and when Mark leaves for the gym the two women inform her that Mark has been cheating on all of them.

All three women decide to take revenge on him together. Kate spikes his smoothies with estrogen pills to swell his nipples; has their dog lick his toothbrush before soaking it in their toilet; and adds hair-removal cream into his shampoo. Carly spikes his water with a laxative to cause him to defecate heavy diarrhea. Amber uses an ugly drag queen sexual partner against him.

In the course of carrying out the women’s vicious pranks, they also discover that Mark has been embezzling money from various startup companies that his workplace helps develop. Meanwhile, Carly begins to connect romantically and feel a bond with Phil. The women’s camaraderie begins to fall apart when Kate finds herself still in love with Mark after caving and having sex with him. Carly exposes Mark’s fraud before texting him, upsetting Kate and Amber.

Later, Mark goes to the Bahamas on a supposed business trip, and Kate decides to follow and expose him. When she arrives she is surprised to find Carly and Amber at the airport, who explain that Mark has been using Kate as the owner of the companies he defrauded from, which would—were his fraud to be discovered—result in Kate going to prison, as opposed to Mark. Kate also finds out that Mark has been seeing yet another woman, someone he has met on this trip. This, and the possibility of her facing prison, motivates her to take action, with the help of Carly’s legal expertise. In addition, Amber confides to Carly that she is seeing someone else as well.

When Mark returns from vacation, he visits Carly at her office. He is then locked in a conference room by her assistant and friend, Lydia (Nicki Minaj), and is stunned to see his wife, his girlfriend and his summer fling sitting in there together. They proceed to confront him with his infidelities and embezzlement. With Carly as her attorney, Kate presents divorce papers and a list of their assets. She reveals how she, as a CEO, has returned all of Mark’s embezzled money to the companies he had robbed from, which saves both of them from prison time but leaves him bankrupt, much to his shock and hysterical outrage. Mark’s former business partner, Nick (David Thornton), then arrives and acknowledges Kate’s work while firing him.

The three women all applaud each other, as Mark excuses himself from them, fuming. With his furious anger and rush to leave, he smashes into an empty glass room, which drastically cuts himself while rips his coat. Afterwards, he then finds his car being towed away before also receiving a departing punch in the face from Frank.

In the film’s epilogue, Kate takes over Mark’s previous job with Nick and is a CEO of several successful companies, making big profits under her honest leadership. Carly and Phil fall in love, and the couple are expecting a child. Amber and Frank are now a couple and are traveling the world together. The film ends with the three women toasting to their friendship and promising to never sleep with the same guy ever again.
