MISSED CONNECTION follows Jamie Nichols, the awkward and slightly desperate girl you took to dinner and a movie, and then dumped on the front stoop of her Brooklyn apartment. She'd love to be in a normal romantic relationship, but as her best friend Bek says, "she's a weirdo magnet." When Thomas Riley, an equally awkward and strange guy moves in next door, she finds herself scared of actually making a meaningful connection with another human being for the first time.
