Synopsis: Jeff, a self-hating Star Trek nerd, is bumming out his sci-fi geek buddies with his visions of a life beyond fandom. But when their car breaks down on the way to San Diego's famous Comic Con, he is forced to find a payphone in a local bar. There he meets the girl of his dreams...and her knuckle-dragging date! But thanks to countless hours of epic Trek battles, Jeff knows how to handle himself in a fight. Or does he?
