Heart Condition is a mystery-fantasy about Mooney, a hard-living, bigoted, overly-zealous vice-cop, who has been frustrated in his efforts to get evidence against Stone, a crooked black attorney. Mooney also harbors resentment, because Stone is having an affair with Chris, a prostitute, and Mooney's former live-in lady friend, for whom Mooney still pines. One night, while Mooney is sharing some whiskey with his cat, he suffers a massive heart attack and needs an emergency transplant. As fate would have it, Stone is fatally injured in a car crash and Stone's heart is donated to Mooney. While Mooney is recuperating and finding it hard to accept that he has a black man's heart, Stone's ghost appears to him. Stone tells Mooney his car crash was no accident, that he feels a special kinship with Mooney, and he wants Mooney to solve his murder. Since Mooney is the only one who can see or hear Stone, there are some very funny moments as their rocky relationship mellows and this bizarre duo unravel the mystery.

Comment: There was no real whiskey in the cat's milk.
