As youngsters, Will Morrison (Lukas Haas), Daniel Bloom (Adam Scott), and Maggie Claire (Molly Parker)
were three joined-at-the-hip friends who blissfully idled away their summers at the Bloom family's island cottage. Will finally
married Maggie, and then he disappeared. After five years of waiting and wondering, Maggie gave him up for dead. But now,
Will has returned - bedraggled and world-weary - to the cottage of his childhood friend. His sudden appearance so unnerves
Daniel's parents, Mary (Wendy Crewson) and Arthur (R.H. Thomson), that they summon their son home from New York where he now
lives the good life as a successful author. But the reunion between Daniel and Will is far from cordial, especially when Maggie
enters the fray. As accusations fly and tension mounts, this houseful of unexpected guests is about to embark on a journey
fraught with recriminations, misunderstandings, and startling revelations that no one saw coming.
