Elliot and Beverly Mantle are identical twins and gynecologists who jointly operate a highly successful clinical practice in Toronto that specializes in the treatment of female fertility problems.

When he tires of them, the women are passed on to the shy and passive Beverly, while the women remain unaware of the substitution.
