Plot
New York City radio producer Judd Altman discovers his wife Quinn has been having an affair with his boss, shock jock Wade Beaufort. Preparing for divorce, Judd learns that his father Mort has died and returns to Upstate New York for the funeral, reuniting with his family: his sister Wendy and her children are neglected by her workaholic husband Barry; his older brother Paul is struggling to conceive with his wife Annie, Judd's high school girlfriend; his younger brother Phillip introduces his older-therapist-turned-girlfriend Tracy; and their mother Hilary explains that Mort wanted them all to sit shiva, forcing the family together for the next seven days.
Staying in his childhood basement, Judd lies to everyone but Wendy about Quinn's absence, but admits the truth to his old classmate Penny Moore. He reconnects with Wendy's ex-boyfriend Horry Callen, who suffered a brain injury years before and lives with his mother Linda, Hilary's neighbor and closest friend. An argument about Phillip joining Paul in running their father's sporting goods business dissolves into a fistfight. Phillip flirts with an ex-girlfriend in front of Tracy, and Wendy drunkenly badgers Judd into blurting out the truth about his wife's affair.
Quinn arrives to inform Judd that she is pregnant with his child, and he visits Penny, spending the night together. Wendy reaches out to Horry, regretting the car accident that led to his injury and the end of their relationship. Phillip reveals Quinn's pregnancy to the family and Hilary brings them to temple, presided over by their classmate Rabbi Charles "Boner" Grodner, and the brothers sneak away to smoke marijuana found in their father's suit jacket. Desperate to have a baby, Annie tries to seduce Judd, and Wendy later confides in him that she is still in love with Horry.
Judd's time with Penny is interrupted by a call from Quinn, who fears she is having a miscarriage. He races to the hospital, where Quinn and their baby are fine, but Wade appears, leading to a confrontation in the waiting room. Wendy arrives and punches Wade, while Judd convinces a group of young men to flip Wade’s Jaguar E-Type. Wade admits that he cannot be there for Quinn, and Judd assures her that they will raise their daughter together, even though their marriage is over.
After an honest conversation with Judd, Tracy decides to break up with Phillip, and Penny refuses to let Judd explain himself. While the house is full of mourners, Judd comforts an apologetic Annie, but Paul assumes he is hitting on her and chases him outside, just as Tracy leaves Phillip. As the three brothers fight, Hilary shocks everyone into silence by kissing Linda. They reveal that they fell in love while caring for Mort, who gave them his blessing. Hilary admits that the shiva was her idea, allowing her to come out to her children while forcing them to reconnect.
When the power goes out in the basement, Judd attempts to fix the fuse box and is shocked unconscious. He relives a childhood memory of falling off his bicycle and being comforted by his father, and wakes up in his mother's arms. Inspired by Hilary and Linda, Judd apologizes to Penny, and they agree to reconnect after he has figured things out for himself, sharing a kiss. Wendy departs with her children, tearing up as she waves goodbye to Horry, while the brothers reconcile and Paul offers Phillip a job. Judd slips away, stealing Phillip's Porsche and driving to Maine, where he had always dreamed of going.
