Romance sparks between a charming middle-aged lawyer and an attractive 27 year old gym teacher, but explaining it to their family and close friends proves to be a bit of a problem.

Zoe and Alec have a lunch time meeting to discuss her impending divorce, and Alec decides to ask her for a real date.

When a twisted ankle forces Zoe to cancel her first date with Alec, he decides to bring a musical to Zoe's bedside. The only problem is Zoe's parents are there too.

In an attempt to learn more about each others work, Alec suffers on the squash courts, and Zoe suffers through the law courts.

Believing it is time for Zoe to meet his family, Alec asks her to go with him to a tea in honor of his birthday. There she will meet the entire family.

Alec's memories of his late wife are brought up while at an intimate dinner with Zoe, so the couple plan a weekend on neutral grounds.
