During the holidays, Ned, an overly caring but loving father, visits his daughter with his family in college, where he meets the worst nightmare of his life - daughter's boyfriend Laird, a well-meaning but awkward in communication billionaire from Silicon Valley. Puritan Ned considers the laird without brakes to be an absolutely unsuitable match for his daughter. The tension in this one-sided confrontation - and thus the degree of Ned's panic - grows as he increasingly feels like a "black sheep" in the glamorous high-tech crowd. So he also learns that the Laird is going to offer his daughter a hand and a heart. But Ned such news only amuses, and he is not going to bless the couple for marriage. The laird must prove by all means that he is worthy of Ned's daughter.
