Jarrod is a born loser - a video game champ who always seems to hit the wrong buttons. His refusal to accept this, loudly demanding instead that everyone respect him doesn't make things any easier. The only one who is prepared to overlook his swaggering is Lily. One day, Lily loses her job. Plucking up all of her courage, she turns up uninvited at one of Jarrod's video game parties. Jarrod heads for his home town, with love-sick Lily in tow.
Jarrod was always a loser. Even at school. Somebody who has always seemed to outdo him - even then - is Eric Elisi. Now Jarrod decides the time has come to take his revenge. He challenges Elisi to a showdown in their old schoolyard. Lily becomes his loyal supporter. The two misfits are anything but a perfect couple. But, who knows, maybe Lily might just be a good catch after all; someone for whom it's worth going into battle ...
