Es ist rabenschwarzer Tag für den aufstrebenden jungen Anwalt Ed Stevens: Nachdem er wegen eines Kommafehlers gefeuert wird, erwischt er seine Frau in flagranti mit dem Briefträger. Da erinnert er sich an seinen Highschool-Schwarm Carol und zieht kurzerhand wieder in sein Heimatstädtchen Stuckeyville. Ein harmloses Küsschen von Carol stimmt ihn so euphorisch, dass er am nächsten Tag die örtliche Bowlingbahn kauft und sich dort als Anwalt niederlässt ...

Ed Stevens has just been fired for misplacing a comma in a 500 page contract, which cost his law firm employer millions of dollars. When he arrives home to give his wife the bad news, he finds her in bed with the mailman. He decides to pack it all in and head back to his hometown of Stuckeyville, Ohio. When he runs into Carol Vessey, the girl of his high school dreams who is now an English teacher at Stuckeyville High School, he decides to stick around and purchase the local bowling alley, where he sets up a law practice. Ed moves in with his best friend Mike and Mike's wife Nancy who are adjusting to life with a new baby. Still intent upon winning over Carol, Ed dons a suit of armor and enters her classroom carrying flowers and seeking a date. Although she is dating another faculty member, Carol agrees.
