With Honors plot
"If you want a degree go to Harvard, If you want an education go to Simon Wilder."
Monty is a cynical, conservative Harvard student. One day, he accidentally drops his only copy of his 100-page thesis. Simon, a good-for-nothing who lives below the library, gets hold of the job. Monty, desperate for his thesis back, asks Simon to return it. The latter sees a golden opportunity ahead of him and makes an appointment with Monty. He will return one page of the thesis for each pleasure Monty does for him. Reluctantly, Monty agrees and is forced to learn a lot of lessons about life and about himself.
