Another adult comedy from the Judd Apatow stable. which picks up where most traditional rom-coms end. In spite of this, the plotline follows the familiar arc.

When she gets an opportunity to study across country, she takes it, he follows her, and they put their wedding on hold until she is done. In those long five years much happens...
