 Michael Newman is a workaholic architect working hard to keep his wife and kids happy. One night, Michael is on the road in search of an open store that may sell him a universal remote control to make his life easier. At the Bed, Bath, & Beyond store, Michael meets Morty, the inventor of a very advanced piece of technology, a remote control that not only controls his TV, but controls his whole LIFE!!! Now that he s using the remote on a regular basis, his work-life and family-life are finally in balance, he s trying harder than he ever imagined to spend more time with his family. Now, frustrated that his stuck up boss hasn t made him partner at his construction firm yet, he uses the remote to fast-forward through his life until his promotion. What he doesn t realize is that he has skipped through a whole year. The remote is now powered by its memory, and starts to fast-forward through crucial moments in his life, including arguments, foreplay, traffic, and, worst of all, promotions at his job. One year turns into ten years and than another six years.
