The Story: It’s the beginning of a new year at college and Dan Hamlin is excited to move into his new dorm room. Imagine his surprise when his roommate turns out to be a girl named Alyson. When Dan and Alyson try to fix their housing arrangement, matters are only made worse. The tyrannical housing director Silvano De Luca and his skittish, but loyal, office assistant Reynolds remove Alyson from the dorm room and give Dan 48 hours to find a roommate…or else.
