Andy Stitzer è un quarantenne con una vita traquilla e piuttosto serena; ha una bella casa, un lavoro, dei buoni amici, una collezione di fumetti e di action figures di cui va fiero. C'è solo una cosa che proprio gli manca: non ha mai fatto sesso. Anche se questo per lui non sembra essere un problema, i suoi amici non la pensano così e tentano in tutti i modi di risolvere la questione, senza però avere successo. Fino al giorno in cui Andy conosce Trish. E' finalmente arrivato il momento giusto?
