When Elizabeth (Phoebe Cates) returns to her mother's home when her marriage breaks up, she recreates her imaginary childhood friend, Fred (Rik Mayall), to escape from the trauma of losing her husband and her job. In between the chaos and mayhem that Fred creates, Elizabeth desperately attempts to win back her husband and return to.

Normality, with comical results.
