Simon is a single man in his late twenties who spends much of his time watching Hollywood romantic comedies. His friend Micke suggests that if Simon went to the park and stood next to a cute dog he will attract women. The plan actually seems to work well as Simon strikes up a relationship with Mia, although not for the reasons he and his friend thought. This is a feature length variant of a short film made by the two directors.
