Il tombe amoureux de la secrétaire de celui-ci, Vonnie (Kristen Stewart), sans savoir qu'elle et son oncle sont amants. Néanmoins il parvient peu à peu à la séduire.

Hélas, à l'heure du choix, Vonnie opte pour l'oncle, pour la sécurité. Bobby retourne chez ses parents. Il se lance dans les affaires aux côtés de son frère, gangster à ses heures, et fait prospérer leur très chic boîte de nuit. Il se marie avec Veronica (Blake Lively), il devient riche.

The premise of the film is stated by a group of four writers conversing over dinner at the beginning of the film. The question arises: Is life naturally comic or tragic? One of the four proposes a simple story (a distraught woman knocks on a door and disrupts a dinner party) and the two prominent playwrights in the group begin telling their versions of this story, one being comic and one tragic.
