Julius Kelp (Lewis) is an AbsentMindedProfessor of chemistry at a small college who's timid, socially awkward, and klutzy. After being bullied and taunted by colleagues and students alike, Kelp invents a [[FantasticDrug serum]] that turns him into an [[TheCasanova incredibly handsome, strong, confident, popular, and assertive man]] called Buddy Love.
