Tickel Head é um pequeno povoado na costa canadense cujos habitantes são obrigados a viver de irrisórios subsídios do governo. Um dia, politicos chegam ao local com a proposta de instalar ali uma pequena fábrica. A ideia parece boa, mas a população só irá aceitar com uma condição: é necessário que a cidade tenha pelo menos um médico residente. Percebendo que não vão chegar a lugar algum, contentam-se com a promessa de que um médico ficará na cidade por apenas um mês. Assim o povo se une para tornar aquele o local mais agradável do mundo a fim de seduzir o médico a permanecer ali para sempre.

Follow the ups and downs -- but mostly ups -- of one of the best players ever to swing a tennis racket at Wimbledon: Pete Sampras.
