## Plot

Some Girl(s) follows a successful writer, simply referred to as "Man," who embarks on a cross-country trip to visit a series of ex-girlfriends before his upcoming wedding.
The film opens with Man visiting Sam, his high school girlfriend, in Seattle. Sam is now married with children but is still deeply hurt by how Man abruptly ended their relationship without explanation. Their meeting is awkward, as Sam reveals that Man's sudden departure years ago left her emotionally scarred, highlighting his pattern of selfish behavior.
Next, Man travels to Chicago to see Tyler, a free-spirited woman with whom he had a passionate, yet tumultuous relationship. Tyler's playful nature contrasts with the emotional tension of their reunion. Despite her carefree demeanor, Tyler expresses lingering resentment towards Man for his lack of commitment and for abandoning her when things got serious.
In Boston, Man meets with Lindsay, a college professor and former mentor, who is married to a much older man. Their relationship had been an affair, and Lindsay is visibly upset by Man's reappearance in her life. She accuses him of manipulating her feelings and using her to boost his own ego, leaving her to deal with the fallout.
The next stop is in Boulder, where Man reconnects with Reggie, a childhood friend whom he once took advantage of during a vulnerable moment. Reggie is now an adult and confronts Man about the incident, revealing that it has haunted her for years. She accuses him of being oblivious to the impact his actions have on others, pointing out his tendency to move through life without considering the consequences of his behavior.
Finally, in Los Angeles, Man visits Bobbi, the woman he almost married. Bobbi is now married and has moved on, but the emotional wounds from their broken engagement still linger. Their conversation reveals that Man ended their relationship out of fear of commitment, a recurring theme throughout his encounters with the other women. Bobbi challenges Man to confront his fear of intimacy and his habit of running away when things get too real.
The film concludes with Man realizing that his journey was less about seeking forgiveness and more about confronting his own flaws. Despite the epiphanies he gains from each encounter, the film ends ambiguously, leaving it unclear whether he will truly change or continue his pattern of self-centered behavior.
