Michael Newman (Adam Sandler), an architect, is married to his longtime sweetheart Donna (Kate Beckinsale) with two children, Ben and Samantha. Michael is easily pushed around by his overbearing boss Mr. Ammer (David Hasselhoff). On numerous occasions, Michael willingly sacrifices time with his family to work so he can give them the kinds of material possessions his parents never got when he was a kid.

One night, after Michael loses his temper at the number of remote controls in the house, he goes in search of a universal remote control. At a Bed Bath & Beyond, Michael collapses onto a bed and then proceeds to the section marked Beyond. There, he meets a mysterious clerk named Morty (Christopher Walken), who gives him a universal remote control and warns that it can never be returned.

To Michael's amazement, he finds that the remote can control the actual universe, particularly time. Michael uses it to skip fights with Donna, go forward until he rids himself of a cold, and skip a family dinner to work. Later, Morty reveals that when Michael fast-forwards through time, his body is on auto-pilot - his mind skips ahead, while his body does everyday life.

Soon Michael is hooked and the results of his addiction begin to hit home.
