Synopsis:Tess McGill is a hard working young woman who is determined to reach the top of the stockmarket world by hard work but as she turns 30 she is stuck in secretarial work, which she hates. When she starts working for Katherine Parker she is glad that Katherine is willing to accept input and ideas from her. However when Katherine goes on holiday and breaks her leg she asks Tess to look after the after the house. This shift leads Tess to discover that Katherine intends to steal her own brilliant idea, which can save a large company from foreign takeover. Enraged because her boyfriend is also cheating on her, Tess sets out to propose a deal by using her ideas herself while Katherine is away. She teams up with Jack Trainer to close the deal before Katherine's return and the two gradually fall in love. A witty, romantic look at life in the corporate jungle starts Melanie Griffith as Tess McGill, an ambitious secretary with a unique approach in climbing the ladder to success. When her classy, but villain boss (Sigourney Weaver) suffers an accident, Tess simply takes over her office, her apartment and even her wardrobe.
