Flash-forward seven years, Jennifer is successful, while Kevin is working as a golf caddy, and still waiting for his big break. Jennifer doesn’t mind this, but her big-shot new boyfriend Bryce (Doom) doesn’t want Kevin living there anymore.

Moreover, Bryce is a cheater. Kevin catches him being unfaithful to the oblivious Jennifer. But, Bryce is trying to get in good with his boss. She like Jennifer and being with her makes him look good.

Bryce takes it to the next level and proposes to Jennifer, despite the fact they only dated for six months.

Now, Kevin is ready for action. He doesn’t want to see Jennifer’s heart break. Soon, he devises a plan. Between his law student brother, and his neighbor, Kevin uncovers that he is in a common-law marriage to Jennifer. That is because he has been living with her for seven years.
