Along Came Polly

Reuben Feffer, a cautious actuary, is on his honeymoon in St. Barts with his new bride, Lisa. Their idyllic getaway quickly crumbles when Reuben discovers Lisa in a compromising situation with Claude, a scuba instructor.

Heartbroken, Lisa confesses her love for Claude and decides to stay on the island with him, leaving Reuben to face a return to his solitary life in New York. This unexpected turn leaves Reuben emotionally shattered and lost.

Back in New York, Reuben finds it difficult to pick up the pieces of his life after Lisa's departure. He grapples with feelings of sadness and confusion as he attempts to navigate a world that feels unfamiliar without her.

During an art gallery visit with his friend Sandy Lyle, Reuben unexpectedly reunites with his old classmate Polly Prince. Intrigued by her, he gathers the courage to invite her out for dinner, initiating a new chapter in his life.

Reuben's dinner invitation to Polly leads them to a Moroccan restaurant. Unfortunately, his experience is marred by an embarrassing incident where he clogs her toilet, testing their budding relationship right from the start.

Despite his initial blunders, Reuben redeems himself on the dance floor with Polly. They share a joyful moment together that strengthens their connection, allowing him to relax and embrace new experiences.

Reuben steps out of his comfort zone as he accompanies Polly to a salsa club. He faces his aversion to spicy food and risky activities but finds himself engrossed in the atmosphere, deepening his feelings for her.

With Polly's adventurous spirit pushing him, Reuben starts embracing new experiences. He even takes dance lessons from Javier, surprising Polly with his skills during a passionate night out together.

Just as Reuben and Polly’s relationship starts to flourish, Lisa unexpectedly returns, stirring up unresolved feelings for Reuben. This prompts Reuben to analyze his situation, weighing the risks of his choices.

A sailing trip managed by Van Lew becomes a turning point when a storm leads to a confrontation between Reuben and Polly. Realizing he had been assessing his choices based on data, Polly feels betrayed by Reuben’s calculated approach.

Fearing the loss of Polly, Reuben attends an art show to seek answers, only to learn that she plans to leave for good. Driven by desperation, he tries to reconcile his feelings and make a final appeal for their relationship.

In a moment of impulsivity, Reuben tries to prove his willingness to embrace risk by eating food off the ground. This unexpected act convinces Polly of their compatibility and marks a pivotal moment in their relationship.

A year has passed, and Reuben and Polly are now enjoying a vacation in St. Barts. Their relationship has blossomed, with both feeling more at ease as they dive into each other’s lives and embrace their feelings for one another.

While vacationing, Reuben and Polly cross paths with Claude, who surprisingly expresses gratitude to Reuben for inadvertently leading him to his current life. This encounter symbolizes Reuben’s growth and acceptance of his new reality.

As Reuben joins Polly in the water, he is ready to face whatever lies ahead with newfound confidence. Together, they look forward to their future and the continued adventures that await them.
