Synopsis: For Martin, fresh off a Nebraska farm, coming out in the 70s should have been easy. He lives with a gay uncle in New York City, attends film school at Columbia, and has two eccentric great-aunts who take his love life all too seriously. But after three years, the shy young man still hasn’t been on a single date – until the Aunties give him a very special gift…

Now that Dietrich Krause has graduated from the St. Lazarus Collegium for Gifted Boys he must fend for himself. A genius with languages, he earned two Bachelor's degrees before he turned twenty. But, his murdered father's will locked him out of the family fortune with complicated requirements; and in the wake of another suspicious death, the new executor of the Krause trust will only provide Dietrich with an allowance for college - unless he prove himself as an entrepreneur.  So to survive, Dietrich is now a student on the fast track for a graduate business degree at Mannheim University while he fights to save his fortune and the family's steel empire.

Andy Turlock, recently freed from a sham marriage, is hoping to expand his Dad's successful electrical parts distribution business with a high-end interior lighting decor showroom. He hopes to use his trip to Europe to find new and exciting products for his shop; and perhaps, finally, explore his long suppressed attraction to men. But Andy, a Mid-Westerner through and through, is more than a little lost as how to find what he wants.

To qualify for an expensive, private Executive MBA program, Dietrich has to come up with a lot of money and a resume with real-world business experience. He has a scheme to entice foreign executives to hire him, for "whatever they need." He is prepared to offer all his considerable assets, mental and physical, to convince them. Perhaps Andy has found just the German escort he needs to find success.

Perhaps being too smart can lead to a lot of complications...
