The story follows the characters of Molly (Bledel), a struggling waitress, and Gus (Levi), a jewelry store employee. Gus and Molly met through a chance encounter when Gus is at Molly's diner ordering a coffee. Molly sees Gus making notes in his pen recorder and when he goes round back to take a phone call leaves a message on it saying her name. Molly and Gus then begin to date, and it is learned that Gus has a memory defect where he can not make new memories and forgets the day every time he sleeps. Trouble ensues as he does not tell Molly this and she finds him recording all their meetings. Gus tries to explain, but Molly mistakes this for being odd. A few weeks later and Molly returns to the apartment to find Gus's sister who explains and gives her the scrapbook Gus made entitled "Molly" he made to remember her. Molly visits the hospital where Gus Is under observation and introduces herself as his girlfriend and gives him the scrapbook so he can remember their relationship. We learn that Gus was meant to be the next Einstein working at Nasa in California, before his accident. Molly takes Gus there, where he meets old colleagues who tell him his work will help understand the universe much better. Whilst there Molly meets Gus's ex girlfriend who warns her any serious relationship with Gus will mean he won't remember their kids and other events in the long-term, and Gus also tells her to leave him if an operation to cure his disease does not work. Gus's sister tells Molly that Gus has already had this operation, however, but that it did not work. That night Molly sees a note on Gus's laptop for his to do list for the next day "Ask Molly to marry me". Molly deletes the note as a result of what Gus had told her to do and Gus wakes up the next day having never remembered Molly. Molly continues her life with a quarter million pounds she got from her great Aunt's will and starts a flower business. One day, at a wedding, a shooting star appears and Molly is reminded of Gus. She visits him the next day and hints to Gus that they know each other and asks him for coffee. The movie ends.

A new science teacher, Miss Sandra Beecher, (Halle Berry) at Kona Pali High School in Hawaii pushes a group of students to come up with a science project. With a combination of design vision, mechanical skills, knowledge of batteries, and lightweight drivers, the students design and build a solar-powered car they name "Cockroach." Their team manages to outperform a corporate-sponsored car and win the local Big Island competition by correctly predicting cloudy weather based on the surfing experience of the student captain, Daniel (Casey Affleck). Cloudy weather would make their vehicle's battery capacity a more important factor than its weight.
