Well-fed bachelor Wally O'Malley, the happy-go-lucky security guard at a tiny mall, hasn't had a robbery in 11 years. When some teen-agers steal expensive men's clothing, Wally's job is on the line.

    His boss says, Lose weight or lose your job. His Mama says, Have some more ravioli. The boss's nephew, fresh out of security guard school, says, Have some doughnuts.

    Wally hires Teresa Columbo, the mall flower vendor engaged to Howard, the bookstore attendant, to help him stop eating and exercise.

    Will Wally lose the weight by deadline? Will Teresa marry Howard? Will Mama quit matchmaking?
