Dr. Horrible’s (Neil Patrick Harris) main focus is his career in villainy and getting into the Evil League of Evil. That is until he meets the beautiful, do-gooder Penny at the laundromat and falls head over heels in love.
Too shy to speak to her, Dr. Horrible misses out on his chance when his arch nemesis, Captain Hammer, swoops in and wins her for himself all while stopping Dr. Horrible’s evil plans. But Dr. Horrible’s nerdy, shy side can only last so long until he is pushed too.
