Do you believe in Superheroes? Dr. Samantha Nichols remembers her college boyfriend Douglas as a cynical, selfish, and materialistic person. When she runs into him again years later, he is selfless and idealistic. Trying to figure out what caused the radical change in his persona, Samantha decides Douglas is delusional. He wants to be a crime fighter and even claims to know people with actual superpowers. Suddenly, Samantha is torn between enjoying the new Douglas and curing him of his fantasies. Surrounded by friends that encourage his behavior, Douglas tries to act the part of a hero and ends up facing off against a group of organized criminals holding the city hostage. When the consequences of vigilantism become dangerously real, Douglas is forced to face the question "What makes a true hero?"
