The story

This film looks at the lives of Jefferson "Jake" and Kristy Briggs, from their wedding day until the birth of their first child, mostly through Jake's eyes, with his voiceover commentaries and several imaginary scenes. Before their wedding day, Jake asks his best friend Davis McDonald if he thinks Jake will be happy to which Davis says, "Yeah, you'll be happy. You just won't know it." After their wedding, Jake and Kristy head for New Mexico, where Jake works toward gaining a master's degree, though he leaves before finishing.
