Neurotic and pessimistic Dell, who works for a pharmaceutical company, is waiting in line at the Hollywood Forever Cemetery in Los Angeles to watch a meteor shower. He is so stunned by a woman who arrives at the cemetery that he is nearly run over by an oncoming car, but the woman, Kimberly, alerts him just in time. Dell asks Kimberly for her phone number, even though she is on a date with Josh, a handsome but shallow man. When confronted by Josh, Dell backs off, but not before taking jabs at Dell's superficiality and lack of personality, which makes Kimberly laugh.
Later at the meteor shower viewing, Dell is muttering to himself before he awkwardly attempts to approach Kimberly. He insists he is not going to ask her out as he does not believe in love. When she asks him for a reason why she should give him a chance, he reveals that when he was talking to himself earlier, he was saying "Don't miss her", as he is always afraid he is going to miss the important things in life. Dell constantly worries about what could happen in five minutes, while Kimberly prefers to live in the moment. She eventually agrees to try out a relationship with him.
Two years later, Dell and Kimberly are in a hotel room preparing to attend her friend's wedding in Paris, where their relationship becomes increasingly strained. As he hides an engagement ring in his pocket, she tells him that when he says he loves her, it never sounds genuine. She later deduces that he is hiding something from her. To assuage Kimberly, Dell declares that knowing her is the best thing that has happened to him, and says it is mostly because she likes him. As he turns to retrieve the ring, she tells him that he was almost successful and storms off.
One year after their breakup, Dell runs into Kimberly at a train station, claiming he is on his way to meet a woman, and they board the same train heading north. During the train ride, he apologizes for the way he treated her while they were together. As Kimberly grows to trust Dell again, he is asked by a conductor to disembark at the next stop for punching a bathroom mirror earlier. Dell admits that he is actually stalking Kimberly in an attempt to win her back. Though she is initially upset, he convinces her to get off at the next stop with him so they can talk.
Some time later, having rekindled their relationship, Dell calls Kimberly from New York City. During their phone conversation, she eventually confesses that she has been texting Jack, the man she had briefly dated after their first breakup, over the past month. Following a heated argument, Dell breaks up with Kimberly, claiming to have never loved her. Shortly afterwards, a nurse calls Dell to inform him that his mother, whom he had saved from a nearly fatal liver cancer four years earlier using an experimental drug, has died from a heart attack.
Six years after they first met, Dell finally agrees to meet with Kimberly in her apartment for the first time since their second, over-the-phone breakup. He correctly guesses that she is engaged to Jack, after seeing a framed photo of them together and noticing that she been fidgeting with her ring finger. After they go up to the rooftop, Dell proclaims that he wants Kimberly back and urges her not to marry Jack. Kimberly reveals she is pregnant and says that although she is grateful for the relationship she had with Dell, she loves Jack. Dell says he does not belong in a world where they do not end up together. After a brief moment of silence, Dell leans in to kiss Kimberly.
