In the sun‑washed suburbs of Glendale, a quiet house still echoes with the absence of a mother’s laughter. Tennie, a sharp‑tongued seventeen‑year‑old, balances the expectations of high school brilliance with the restless rebellion of a teen navigating grief. Her world feels both familiar and suddenly unmoored, as everyday rituals clash with the lingering weight of loss, setting a tone that is at once tender and edged with wry humor.

Across the kitchen table, Robert—a former advertising executive turned well‑meaning but often clumsy single dad—has retreated from the fast‑paced world he once commanded to rebuild his life and, more importantly, to bridge the growing gap with his daughter. His attempts at connection range from the earnest—making breakfast and sharing music—to the hilariously misguided, each effort exposing the awkwardness that can arise when love is expressed without a manual. Their interactions pulse with a bittersweet rhythm, a comedy of errors that underscores a deeper yearning for mutual understanding.

Into this delicate dance step Tennie’s circle of friends, armed with the best intentions and a flair for digital mischief. They hatch a plan to give Robert a fresh start in the realm of romance by crafting an online dating profile—a venture that promises both comedic chaos and unexpected revelations. The film’s tone sways between light‑hearted banter and heartfelt introspection, inviting viewers to watch how a grieving family learns to rewrite its story one awkward moment at a time, all while the suburban backdrop hums with the promise of new connections just beyond the front porch.
