Ordinary and pedestrian Kirk (Jay Baruchel) is an airport security worker, whose social network more or less is a group of dull guys he works with. When he comes to the rescue of a beautiful young woman named Molly (Alice Eve) while she is in airport distress, he becomes smitten. Finding and returning her cell phone opens up a possible dating relationship. His friends like Jack (Mike Vogel) and Stainer (T.J. Miller) feel he has gone above his station, even though he has failed with a girl Marnie (Lindsay Sloane) who was on his level. Molly may have jettisoned the usual scale, having found a simple and funny fellow preferable to an egotistical one. Kirk plans to try his luck.
