She agrees to Lloyds request for a date, and the two of them begin seeing each other regularly.Lloyd seeks advice and counsel from his sister Joan Cusack and several close female friends who are genuinely looking out for Lloyds best interests as he embarks on his first serious romantic relationship. Dianes father, Jim John Mahoney, is under investigation by the Internal Revenue Service for alleged tax violations committed at the nursing home he owns and, as her relationship with Lloyd deepens, Diane worries that she should be spending more time with her father, rather than with Lloyd.

Lloyd ultimately wins Dianes heart before the summers end, and supports her emotionally after her fathers conviction and incarceration. The film ends with Lloyd escorting the aviophobic Diane on her flight to England. ........
