Jay Kelly finishes filming his latest project and, as a renowned actor, longs for a few quiet days with his youngest daughter Daisy before she heads to Europe for college. She’s not much interested in a father-daughter retreat, preferring to run off with friends, and the distance between them has quietly widened over the years, leaving both unsure how to bridge it.
News arrives from Ron, Jay’s manager, that Peter Schneider—the director who once took a chance on Jay—has died. Months earlier, a fading Schneider had asked Jay to attach his name to a new film to help secure financing, a request Jay refused. After the funeral, Jay runs into his old acting-school roommate, Tim, now a child psychologist. In a bar, they swap stories from the old days, but the mood shifts as Tim brings up the girlfriend Jay dated after him and the role that made Jay famous. Their argument escalates into a confrontation that leaves Jay with a black eye.
The next morning, Jay drops out of his upcoming film and books a flight to Europe. [Ron] warns that walking away could wreck what’s left of his career, but Jay frames the trip as a Dior appearance followed by an award ceremony in Tuscany. Meg, Jay’s assistant, tracks Daisy by monitoring one of her friend’s card transactions. By the time Jay and his team reach Paris, Daisy is already on a train, and they chase after her. Onboard, Jay experiences a rare moment of genuine ease, as fans recognize him yet treat him like a real person—he jokes, takes photos, and even invites a few to his tribute event. Amid the trip, word online spreads that Tim is suing him for assault.
He finally locates Daisy in the dining car. The reunion is short-lived once she realizes he’s been following her. Ron and Liz, Jay’s publicist, sit a few cars away and reflect on the years they’ve spent managing him and how their own lives have revolved around his problems. Ron still resents the night Liz left him at the Eiffel Tower, while Liz admits she misses time with her own daughter.
When a biker steals a woman’s handbag, Jay chases him and recovers it. Ron suggests inviting Jay’s father to join them, and Jay agrees, hoping to repair that frayed bond. By the time they reach Tuscany, the clip has gone viral, and Jay is hailed as a hero. Ron then leaves to meet another client, Ben Alcock, who fires him on the spot. He calls home, but the conversation is stiff and brief. Back at the party, Jay barely notices Ron’s absence. Later, Ron reveals that Tim dropped the lawsuit after lawyers uncovered an old charge in Tim’s record.
Jay’s father arrives, looking worn, and asks to go back to Maine. Jay pleads for him to stay, but the taxi pulls away. He chases it, only to watch it disappear around the corner, then wanders into the nearby woods. He calls his older daughter Jessica and asks her to visit, but she refuses, reminding him of the day she brought him to therapy, when the counselor began reading a letter she had written about missing him—only to walk out before finishing.
Seeing Ron’s taxi, Jay runs after it and begs him to come to the tribute. Ron agrees but makes it clear their professional collaboration is over. Jay finally understands that he’s spent years confusing paid loyalty with love. At the tribute, as Jay faces the cameras, he hesitates and gently whispers a line that feels like a final pause: > "Another shot."
