Plot:

Kirk Kettner, a timid TSA agent, accidentally leaves his phone at the airport security checkpoint, where it's found by Molly McCleish, a gorgeous and accomplished event planner. When Molly returns his phone, an unexpected spark ignites between them. Despite Kirk's scruffy appearance, average job, and the immediate ridicule from his best friends—Stainer, Jack, and Devon—Molly agrees to go on a date with him. Their initial dates go surprisingly well, with Molly finding Kirk's honesty and humor endearing, much to the astonishment of everyone who knows Kirk.

As their relationship deepens, Kirk's insecurities and the constant badgering from his friends about Molly being "out of his league" begin to strain their bond. Kirk's ex-girlfriend, Marnie, and Molly's seemingly perfect ex-boyfriend, Cam, also add to the complications. Through a series of embarrassing mishaps, misunderstandings, and a memorable family trip, Kirk struggles to believe that Molly could truly be interested in him. Ultimately, Kirk must overcome his self-doubt and the external pressures to prove to Molly, and himself, that he is worthy of her love, leading to a heartwarming and humorous resolution where they accept each other's differences and find genuine happiness together.
