Synopsis

Train Man is a total geek—the kind of guy who spends his nights glued to electronics and anime box sets, which probably explains why he's never had a girlfriend. His life is pretty much textbook shut-in material. Then one night on the train, everything changes. He spots Hermess, an attractive woman in his car, and it's instant infatuation. When a drunk passenger starts harassing her, Train actually steps up and helps her out—shocking himself more than anyone. Things escalate when Hermess thanks him and suggests they stay in touch. Panicking, Train does what any internet-dependent guy would do: he logs into an online chat room looking for damage control advice. Instead of sympathy, the forum basically dares him to ask her out. Suddenly he's got a whole crowd of strangers coaching him through every detail—when to do it, where to do it, how not to completely bomb it. So the question becomes: can this awkward mess of a person actually pull off a real relationship? Or is the pressure to suddenly become a normal human being just going to crush him?
