That Awkward Moment (2014) Movie Synopsis - Plot Summary
Jason (Zac
Efron) is sitting on a bench in New York City waiting for someone to arrive. A
voiceover explains that he has been waiting for a long time, but to explain
why, he needs to go back to the beginning. Jason begins by telling the audience
that every relationship reaches the "So..." moment, where someone in
the relationship will want to take the relationship to a more serious place. At
that point, Jason knows the relationship is over, as he is not ready to start
dating.
Jason is
currently working with his best friend Daniel (Miles Teller) at a publishing
house designing book covers. Their friend Mikey (Michael B. Jordan), a young
doctor who has been married to Vera (Jessica Lucas) since the end of college,
comes to them after Vera requests a divorce. The three decide to go out to a
bar and celebrate being single. The group meets up with Daniel's female
wingman, Chelsea (Mackenzie Davis), as they try to get Mikey's mind off of his
wife. Mikey meets a girl with glasses (Kate Simses), while Jason meets Ellie
(Imogen Poots), and hits it off with her after teasing another man that was
trying to buy her a drink. Mikey gets the girl's number, but decides not to
call, resolving to work it out with his wife. Jason sleeps with Ellie, but
escapes her apartment when he discovers circumstantial evidence that she may be
a prostitute.
The next
day, Jason and Daniel make a book cover pitch to a new author, who happens to
be Ellie. Jason is able to explain himself and the two begin seeing each other
on a regular basis. Meanwhile, Daniel begins to fall for Chelsea, and the two
begin seeing one another. Additionally, Mikey meets with his estranged wife,
and when she claims that the reason their marriage fell apart is because he is
not spontaneous enough, Mikey kisses her, and the two sleep together in the
hospital, reigniting their romance. All three friends attempt to keep their
relationships a secret, due to their earlier agreement that they would stay
single. The relationships all come to a head during Thanksgiving, a time that
the three friends usually spend together, but varying circumstances keep them
apart. Jason agrees to attend a funeral for Ellie's recently passed father,
Mikey plans a Thanksgiving dinner with his wife, and Daniel attends the
traditional Thanksgiving feast with Chelsea, free to openly tell the guests
about their relationship.
Jason
ultimately decides not to attend the funeral, not ready to fully commit to
Ellie, and their relationship falls apart. Mikey has a serious conversation
with his wife during their dinner, causing her to admit that she no longer
loves him. Jason and Mikey head to the dinner where they discover Daniel's
relationship with Chelsea, and when he denies that they are dating, his
relationship falls apart as well. Although the three fight about keeping their
relationships secret, they repair their friendship and try to recover their
relationships.
Mikey
calls glasses girl from the bar, setting up a date, and Daniel reunites with
Chelsea after being hit by a taxi and ending up in the hospital. However, two
months later, Jason has still not reconciled with Ellie, despite still being in
love with her. Mikey and Daniel help Jason by encouraging him to tell her of
his love at her weekly book readings, which are sparsely attended. However,
upon their arrival, the reading is full and Jason is unable to figure out a way
to talk with her. He decides to make a scene by improvising a book reading,
referencing their first meeting and requesting that they start over by meeting
in Gramercy Park.
Returning
to the beginning, Jason is waiting for Ellie in Gramercy Park. Ellie arrives
and sits on the bench with him, where Jason starts their talk, beginning with,
"So..."
