PlotA socially awkward and self-conscious college professor, specializing in chemistry, struggles with his low self-esteem and lack of success in his personal life, particularly in romance. Overweight, clumsy, and frequently ridiculed by his students and colleagues, he is hopelessly infatuated with one of his students, a beautiful and kind young woman who seems out of reach. His professional life, while more successful due to his scientific brilliance, does not compensate for his lonely and unfulfilled emotional life.
In an attempt to transform his life and win over the affections of his crush, the professor develops a miraculous serum that can alter his physical appearance to become handsome, fit, and utterly charismatic. After experimenting with the potion, he experiences a dramatic change, not only in his looks but also in his personality; he becomes confident, suave, and socially adept, making him suddenly very popular and giving him the attention he has longed for. However, he also grapples with the repercussions the new persona has on his integrity and values.
