Morals Inc. is a comedy that debunks the myths that modelling is glamourous, genetic engineering is harm-free, and American politicians are never honourable.
Samantha Connors, 38, is a woman of the world. Well, that’s how she looks on paper: ex-model, magazine columnist, author, mother of one … But she is not, it seems, a woman in control of her life. One evening she turns on the television and comes face to face with an old fling and the father of her 19-year-old daughter, Millie, whom she’s not seen for nineteen years. When Vince Bradley—once a model then a pig farmer and now Governor of Indianapolis running for the U.S Presidency—flaunts his capped dentures on the late night news, Sam’s life is about to change forever.
In between penning pithy pieces for a woman’s magazine on the daily dilemmas of the modern woman, writing a novel and being struck down by what can only be described as a 30-Something Malaise, she realises she must confront her biggest challenge yet: how to tell her daughter who her father is.
Factor in her gay personal trainer, Martin; girlfriends—Gina, and Stella, the anti-genetic engineering group P.A.G.E and famous food critic, Henry Royston-Phipps, and you have a woman headed for breakdown unless she gets a grip on life and does what she should have done years ago.
