Here is the plot synopsis for “Dinner for Schmucks”:

The comedy “Dinner for Schmucks” tells the story of Tim (Paul Rudd). He’s an up-and-coming executive who has just received his first invitation to the “dinner for idiots,” which is a monthly event hosted by his boss that promises bragging rights (and maybe more) to the executive who shows up with the biggest buffoon.

Tim’s fiancée, Julie, finds it distasteful. Tim agrees to skip the dinner until he bumps into Barry (Steve Carell). Barry is an IRS employee who devotes his spare time to building elaborate taxidermy mouse dioramas. Tim quickly realizes he has struck idiot gold.

Tim can’t resist and invites Barry. Barry’s blundering good intentions soon sends Tim’s life into a frenzied downward spiral and a series of comic misadventures. This threatens a major business deal by bringing crazy stalker ex-girlfriend Darla back into Tim’s life and driving Julie (or so Tim thinks) into the arms of another man.
