Meanwhile their adolescent son is learning about feelings of love, when he falls for his babysitter. She in turn is harboring feelings for Cal. Distraught by his wife's admission of infidelity and desire to be down with the marriage, Cal drinks away his sorrows. He meets a younger man, Jacob ( Ryan Gosling), who teaches Cal how to be a ladies man. Cal is launched into a world he never had a chance to experience. In turn he unknowingly teaches Jacob about the happiness that real love can bring you.
