The film revolves around the life of the neurotic and obsessive-compulsive Bob Wiley, played by Bill Murray, who is in desperate need of a therapist to help him overcome his fears and anxieties. After being recommended by his former therapist, Bob seeks help from Dr. Leo Marvin, a celebrated psychiatrist, played by Richard Dreyfuss.

Bob quickly becomes attached to Dr. Marvin, and his obsessive-compulsive behavior becomes a nuisance to both Dr. Marvin and his family. Despite Dr. Marvin's attempts to rid himself of Bob, the two seem to be constantly crossing paths, leading to a number of hilarious and absurd situations.
