Plot

Divorced Lauren Reynolds goes on a blind date with widower Jim Friedman at Hooters, but it ends in disaster. Jim's wife has died from cancer and his three daughters, Hilary "Larry", Espen "ESPN" and Louise "Lou", try to cope with her loss. Lauren's husband Mark cheated on her, but she never told her two sons, Brendan and Tyler, why they are divorced, so they are hostile to her dating again. While Jim struggles with his girls (Hilary is going through puberty and desires a more feminine look; Espen still pretends that her late mother is around, and Lou is still a very young child), Lauren struggles with her sons (Tyler is prone to fits of anger, while Brendan, who struggles with the divorce, is also going through puberty).
