The Legend of Black Annie

Carly Whitten (Cameron Diaz), a Manhattan attorney, has been dating handsome and charismatic businessman Mark King (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau) for two months. Carly and Mark have had sex several times and share an explosive chemistry with each other. They enjoy each other's company and look great together. Lydia (Nicki Minaj) is Carly's confidante and assistant at work. Lydia is amazed as Carly has not dated just the one guy in a long time. Carly plans to introduce Mark to her father Frank (Don Johnson) over dinner, but Mark cancels on them because of a "flood" at his Connecticut home. Encouraged by Frank, Carly dresses up in a sexy plumber's outfit and heads to Mark's house to seduce him. However, she is horrified to be met at the door by Mark's wife Kate (Leslie Mann), whom she had assumed to be Mark's housekeeper. Carly flees in embarrassment. Mark's life with Kate is very different. Kate is like a normal housewife and has responsibilities. She urinates in the bathroom while Mark is brushing his teeth. Mark gets Kate to sign official documents without giving her a chance to read them. The next day, Kate unexpectedly shows up at Carly's law firm. Kate says that she found Kate's number on Mark's phone and tracker her down. Talking to Carly, Kate realizes that Mark is lying to Kate and is sleeping with Carly. Kate has a meltdown in the middle of Carly's office. Carly admits to a panicked Kate that Mark has been cheating on her, but assures her that she had no idea Mark was married. Carly says that they had been having sex for a couple of months. Kate is livid when Carly says that they have had sex 50 times. Apparently Mark told Kate that he was training for the marathon. Kate is worried that she would have to reenter the dating scene which is now full of men who look gross. Carly says that if Kate forgives Mark, he would just do it again and Kate would be right back where she started. Initially annoyed by her constant presence at her apartment or work, Carly begins to warm up to Kate. Kate brings food to Carly to make it up to her. Kate breaks down saying that her whole world just blew up, and she does not have a job or any savings of her own. She has no friends to talk to as all of her friends are Mark's friends and Carly is the only person she can talk to about Mark. Kate wants to know if Mark still loves her or has fallen in love with Carly, who has been ignoring him. Kate asks Carly to recommend a divorce lawyer to her. When Kate discovers that Mark is seeing yet another woman, she suspects that Carly has secretly resumed her affair with Mark. The two argue before realizing that Mark is seeing a third woman, since both Carly and Kate have each been refusing to have sex with him. Carly and Kate follow Mark to the Hamptons, where they stay at the house of Kate's brother Phil (Taylor Kinney), who is immediately attracted to Carly. The duo find Mark with his mistress Amber (Kate Upton), a young swimsuit supermodel, on the beach. Kate is depressed looking at Amber as she is a voluptuous, mid-life crisis for women. When Mark leaves, they inform Amber that Mark has been cheating on all of them. Amber is shocked that Mark had lied to her, since he had claimed that Kate had cheated on him and that he was in the middle of divorcing her. All three women decide to exact revenge together by pulling pranks on him, including spiking his smoothies with estrogen pills, adding hair-removal cream to his shampoo, and lacing his water with laxatives. The trio discovers Mark has been embezzling money from various startup companies his workplace helps to develop. Meanwhile, Carly becomes romantically involved with Phil. The women's camaraderie begins to fall apart when Kate finds herself still in love with Mark after caving in and having sex with him. Carly exposes Mark's fraud before texting him, upsetting Kate and Amber. However, Kate later realizes that Mark has not changed after he catches a cold and suspects he has an STI (since Amber claimed she has one to avoid sleeping with him again) and he tries to trick her into taking medication for it too. When Mark goes to the Bahamas on a supposed business trip, Kate decides to follow and expose him. She is joined by Carly and Amber, who explain that Mark has set up Kate as the owner of the companies he defrauded, which, if his fraud is discovered, would result in Kate going to prison rather than him. She also learns he has yet another mistress, whom he has met on this trip. This, and the possibility of facing prison, motivates her to take action, with the help of Carly's legal expertise. Amber confides to Carly that she is seeing someone else too. Returning from the trip, Mark visits Carly at her office, only to find Kate, Carly, and Amber all sitting in the conference room together. The trio confronts 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, named CEO by Mark, has returned all of his embezzled money to the companies from which he had stolen. While that saves Mark from jail time, it leaves him bankrupt, much to his shock and outrage. Mark's former business partner Nick (David Thornton) fires him before acknowledging Kate's work. Everyone watches in amusement as a furious Mark accidentally smashes into an empty room's glass paneling, severely injuring his nose. Exiting the building, he finds his car being towed away and is punched in the face by Frank. Carly and Phil move in together and Carly becomes pregnant with Phil's child. Kate takes over Mark's job with Nick to become CEO of several successful companies, making big profits under her honest leadership. Frank is revealed as the man Amber is dating and the two travel the world together.
