The story begins with the worst day of the Belushi character's life, thanks to a series of comic and dramatic misadventures. Belushi, who blames all of his life's problems on the fact that he fumbled during a key moment of a high school baseball game, wishes he had done things differently. His wish is granted by a guardian angel named Mike, who is played by Caine and appears at various times as a bartender, a cab-driver, etc. The next morning, Belushi wakes up in an alternate reality in which he had won the pivotal high school game. He now finds himself rich and (within his company) powerful, and married to the boss's sexy daughter. At first, his new life seems perfect, but he soon begins to miss his best friend and wife from his previous life; he also discovers that his alternate self has created many enemies, and as Belushi's problems multiply, he finds himself wishing to be put back into his old life.
