Martino takes advantage of a misunderstanding and pretends to be the Doctor's assistant, Mister Happines to make some money and is hired to assist figure-skating champion Arianna Croft regain her self-confidence after an accident on the ice. But optimism is not really his thing, and only when he reveals his true self as a hopeless cynic, does Martino actually help Arianna.
