Plot

Jersey Girl is the story of Toby, a lower-class girl who's a preschool teacher from New Jersey who's tired of feeling like her life has no purpose and nothing interesting in it. While out to dinner with her friends, she decides she wants to change her fate. After talking to her friends about what the ideal man is like, she decides she's going to go find him. Toby travels to New York and walks into a Mercedes-Benz dealership in search of her 'Mr. Right'. She feels immediately uncomfortable and leaves. While trying to back out of the parking lot, she nearly hits a man (Sal) driving a brand-new MB. He drives around her and leaves the parking lot, but she's smitten. She follows him down the road, and ultimately ends up causing an accident resulting in significant damage to Sal's car. They exchange information, and she decides to actively pursue him.
