Storyline
| Plot Summary |
Joey Boca (Kevin Kline) works with Rosalie (Tracey Ullman) in their pizza parlor. She is convinced that he works all of the time for them and her world dissolves when she finds that he has been fooling around for years. Being Catholic, divorce is out of the question, so she, her mother, and her best friend decide to kill him. Hopelessly incompetent as killers, they hire incompetent professionals as they beat, poison, and shoot Joey, who remains oblivious to their attempts.

| Trivia | Loosely based on the true story of Frances Toto and her four unsuccessful attempts to kill her cheating husband, Anthony Toto, in Allentown, Pennsylvania in 1984. Anthony spent four days in bed after being drugged and shot by Frances and her friends; who spent four years in prison after pleading guilty to attempted murder.

| Quotes |
Rosalie Boca:
They look like drug addicts. Devo Nod: Well, they are drug addicts. Rosalie Boca: Oh my God! You hired drug addicts? Devo Nod: Who'd you expect me to hire? The Red Cross? Nadja: They seem like very polite boys. Rosalie Boca: I don't like having drug addicts in my house! Nadja: Oh no, Rosalie. Don't think of them as drug addicts. Think of them as killers. See more » |
