He has hopes of becoming an Internet entrepreneur and, certain of his future success, gives her his mother’s phone number and suggests she call him in six years to see if his prediction came true.
Three years later, facing the prospect of spending New Year’s Eve alone, Emily finds Oliver’s number and calls him, and the two meet for dinner. Thus starts a series of reunions with the passing of time, as each drifts in and out of relationships with others, Oliver and his business partner Jeeter start an on-line diaper service, and Emily becomes a successful photographer.
