Dirty Details Done Dirt Cheap:
Veronica Quaife is a spunky journalist (not quite Lois Lane spunky, but close enough) who's just stumbled onto both the love of her life and the story of her career: Seth Brundle, brilliant and eccentric scientist, who's been living and working in isolation as he's creating something called a "Telepod," which will make teleportation possible. Unfortunately, after Seth becomes sexually jealous (and a little drunk) after he suspects Veronica is still sleeping with her ex-boyfriend, Stathis Borans (the editor-in-chief of the popular science magazine, Particle), he tests the Telepod on himself and... well, you know the rest. Veronica is also pregnant with Seth's baby, who will eventually grow up to be Eric Stoltz.
