But once she was really mean to her ex, Jake Gyllenhaal, who is a NICE GUY and she aborted his baby without telling him. So he writes a novel and sends it to her, about a NICE GUY (Jake Gyllenhaal) who is married to a pretty redhead and has a pretty redhead daughter.

    Only the wife and daughter are kidnapped,…
