This reminds of the climax of "Tootsie" and when Clifford Irving tried to pedal a Howard Hughes "autobiography" back in the early 1970s all mixed in with Mike McGrady et al. (aka, Penelope Ashe: "Naked Came The Stranger&quot with a dash of Rachel Dolezal!

Of course, there are all kinds of societal elements but that's what makes it fun!
