Siri, a shy bookworm, can’t muster the courage to apply for a job in a used bookstore because she has a crush on the cute clerk. Her sister, Kaya, offers to break the ice and begins a conversation with Guy who works at the counter, while Siri tells her what to say via text messages. They discuss the philosophically challenging author David Foster Wallace and Guy is intrigued by Kaya, but the ruse is quickly discovered. When Siri and Guy finally meet and the true person behind the provocative ideas is revealed, friendship and possibly love bloom.
