A political consultant
in the midst of a bitter divorce attempts to delicately divulge the truth
about his past relationships to his curious young daughter, who simply
won't stop asking questions until she's satisfied with all the answers.
Ten-year-old Maya (Abigail Breslin) is heartbroken to see her parents splitting
up, but she's determined to find out precisely how it was that mom and
dad came together in the first place. When Maya starts questioning her
father Will (Ryan Reynolds) about his life before marriage, dad's memories
soon drift back to the time when, as a naïve Wisconsin native and
aspiring politician hoping to work on the presidential election, he first
arrived in New York City. As Will gradually became savvy to the ways of
the big city, he gradually developed romantic relationships with three
very different women: Emily (Elizabeth Banks) was the girl-next-door that
he could always depend on, apolitical April (Isla Fisher) was the best
friend and confidante who was always there to listen, and free-spirited
journalist Summer (Rachel Weisz) was both beautiful and ambitious. In order
to prevent his perceptive little girl from predicting the outcome before
his story is told, Will carefully changes the names of his three romantic
interests, creating a hopelessly romantic puzzle that highlights both the
joys and hardships of true love.
