Wallace meets Chantry at a party and she has everything: a wit to match his own, an infectious smile, and a personality which blends seamlessly with his. But she also has something else — a boyfriend.

The pair grow closer as Wallace battles with his own insecurity about her true feelings. Does she love him? Does she secretly want to leave her boyfriend for him? Or does she just want a new friend? As time goes on, Wallace has to decide whether his perceived worst-case scenario would really be so bad.

Toothpaste and Cigars is a two-handed romantic-comedy about unrequited love.
