Ben Banks is a 28-year-old journalism student and stoner who has spent twelve years at a two-year community college, avoiding responsibility and any pressure to grow up. He has no ambition beyond avoiding growing up. Amy, a beautiful woman with a troubled past, comes into his life and sees potential in him that he cannot see in himself. Her attention gives him confidence and a reason to change. A local conspiracy and a dead body pull him away from his slacker routines and force him to face adult responsibilities. Amy's belief in him becomes the push he needs to take his life seriously.
