Plot

This article needs an improved plot summary. (December 2018)

A story of relationships, Happythankyoumoreplease deals with the struggles facing several pairs trying to find their way in the big city. The film centers on Sam (Radnor), a writer who is trying (unsuccessfully) to get his first novel attempt into print, and Rasheen (Algieri), a foster care child, whom Sam meets when Rasheen is abandoned on the subway. The film also involves Sam's best friend Annie (Åkerman), a woman who has the autoimmune disorder alopecia (which has caused her to lose her hair), who is trying to find a reason to be loved; Sam's cousin Mary Catherine (Kazan) and her boyfriend Charlie (Schreiber), and Mississippi (Mara), a waitress/singer who is trying to make it in the city. Mary Catherine faces the prospect of either moving to Los Angeles with Charlie (to a new job offer) or staying in her familiar New York, which would mean ending their relationship. When Mary finds she is pregnant, the moving situation becomes more complicated.

Sam's attempt to return the young Rasheen to the proper authorities fails when the boy is determined not to re-enter the foster care program. Sam subsequently tries to adopt the boy, but botches the application process in a fashion that ends in his (brief) arrest. Rasheen is finally placed with a new foster family, but Sam keeps tabs, including providing the boy with drawing materials when he learns of his artistic abilities. Sam also works on bringing Mississippi into his life, with several setbacks, but at movie's end it appears that their relationship is in place.
