Synopsis:
Meet Dougal, an impossibly upbeat Brit who has just landed in New York City for the first time to attend the wedding of the father he's never met. Meet Robin, the sister of the bride and a no-nonsense New Yorker with a lot of errands to run-including picking up the groom's estranged son from the airport. What starts as a simple errand—picking up an expensive wedding cake—turns into a wild, 24-hour odyssey across the five boroughs. As the cake gets closer to the wedding, these two strangers realize they might be the only two people in New York who actually understand each other.
