A bride and her bridesmaids hire Uber driver Harry to take them out shopping for dresses. However, when Harry misses the very big hint that the bride is, in reality, secretly pregnant, he risks spilling the beans to her mother as he interrogates her about her fantasy wedding plans.

Harry is excited to drive an incredibly nervous Middle Eastern couple on a detailed tour of the city’s numerous landmarks. However, when he drops them off at an important government building, Harry fears he may have aided a terrorist plot. A comedy of errors and a lesson in judging a book by its cover.

Harry takes an Italian family to their grandmother’s birthday party, only to become dismayed when none of them actually wants to attend the event. When Harry reminisces about his own beloved grandmother, everyone learns a lesson about the importance of family.

Harry is about to ask Wendy out on a date when he finds a children’s toy has been left in the back seat of his car. He wastes the whole day, and risks serious consequences, trying to find its rightful owner. But, in the end, he discovers that the world is not the way he imagines it.

Harry is delighted to discover that his newest passenger is a boy on the autism spectrum just like him. Finally, he has a chance to make a real connection. Unfortunately, Harry tries to use his personal experiences to coach the boy about how to talk to people at parties, only to make the boy hysterical.

Harry is intimidated when a pair of boisterous rappers hire him as their personal after-party Uber driver for a night. But, when they learn about Harry’s romantic feelings for Wendy, they insist on helping him win her heart—whether he’s ready or not. Will Harry finally tell Wendy how he feels about her?
