Bertram Pincus (Ricky Gervais) is a Manhattan dentist who undergoes a colonoscopy, something goes wrong, and he dies–but only for seven minutes. When he awakens, he can see and hear dead people, all of whom have unfinished business and want Bertram to do something for them. One of the dead, Frank Herlihy (Greg Kinnear), wants Bertram to intercede in his widow Gwen's (Tea Leoni) wedding to Richard (Billy Campbell) because Frank believes that Richard is only after her money. Bertram agrees, but once he sees Gwen, he falls for her himself and now wants nothing more than to win Gwen away from Richard. But, because of Bertram's lack of social skills, the task will not be easy.
