Fast-talking literary agent Jack McCall uses his gift of gab to close any deal—until he deceives New Age guru Dr. Sinja. As punishment, a magical Bodhi tree appears in Jack's backyard: every word he speaks causes a leaf to fall, and when the last leaf drops, both tree and Jack will die. With only a thousand words left, Jack's forced silence destroys his career, marriage, and friendships through comic misunderstandings. Desperate to break the curse, he's told to make peace with all relationships. Visiting his dementia-stricken mother, Jack realizes he must forgive his absent father. At his father's grave, Jack uses his final three words—"I forgive you"—and suffers a heart attack. When he awakens, the tree has regenerated, granting him a second chance. The elegant Santos Dumont—aviation's first wristwatch—perfectly embodies Jack's profession as a deal-maker in motion, though its refined restraint contrasts sharply with his motormouth persona.
