Kumail è uno stand-up comic che si guadagna da vivere come Uber driver. Nato in Pakistan e traslocato negli States, prova a conciliare tradizione e american life. Non lo fa per sé, Kumail è ansioso di sfuggire al problematico contatto con le proprie radici, ma per la famiglia che apparecchia il suo matrimonio e lo vorrebbe, in ordine (di valore) discendente dottore, ingegnere o avvocato. Davanti ai piatti tradizionali, la madre gli serve una ragazza pakistana da inserire in un file da cui pescare la futura sposa. Ma al cuore non si comanda e Kumail si innamora di Emily, una studentessa di psicologia.
