Six decades ago, a meteor which bestowed him with powers struck Robert Kenner. Today, Bob is an over worked under-appreciated"civil servant" for the British government. He spends hours rescue people and completing forms. There hasn't been any time for anything else. Least of all love. But now he has a day off. And on top of that, he's got a date. He has to do is behave as though this isn't the day of his entire life. This puts off people.
