No More Mr. Nice Guy
A Summary
Logline: Serial Nice Guy Tanner just met Paris, the woman of his dreams. Paris has just met Tanner, her new mark and the soul she must destroy in order to save mankind from becoming “too nice”.
Tanner Mills suffers from terminal niceness. He’s a 22-year-old virgin with a barrel full of respect and hope. He is thoughtful, accommodating, endlessly patient. He will never stop opening car doors.
When he meets Paris—magnetic, attentive, and seemingly immune to his performative charm—he’s convinced he’s finally found the one person who sees him.
Paris sees him, alright—as a problem.
Part of a secret, centuries-old order, Paris hunts a specific kind of man: the Serial Nice Guy, whose suppressed expectations and unspoken transactions quietly rot relationships and, left unchecked, tip the world toward a suffocating, dishonest civility. Her task is simple in theory—draw him in, expose the truth beneath the politeness, and destroy him before he connects with a woman and spreads his damnable seed.
But Tanner isn’t as harmless—or as predictable—as he seems. On a weekend camping getaway, he is quick to realize Paris’ mortal intent. Tanner is on the run, begging for life against a supernatural witch. He is sure he will die the virgin he never wanted to be until it is realized that he, too, has a primal side. As the conflict progresses Paris soon realizes that the hunted has become the hunter.
At the same time, Paris begins to question the mission she’s never doubted, as flashes of genuine vulnerability blur the line between target and human being.
What begins as a calculated seduction spirals into a psychological duel about authenticity, control, and the danger of confusing kindness with goodness—forcing both of them to confront what they are before one of them is erased.
