On the advice of a wise friend, he decides to confront his past and seek their forgiveness.Accompanied on his quest for absolution by his former college roommate, a football-player-turned-orthodox-Jew, Jimmy takes us back in time to recount the details of his past relationships with each of the virgins – how he met them, seduced them and broke their hearts -- and then describes how they react when he revisits each of them to apologize.
