Knight and Day follows Roy Miller (Cruise) and June Havens (Diaz). After colliding with Miller twice in the airport departure terminal on the way home from Wichita to pick up car parts, Havens is told she has been bumped to a later flight. Meanwhile, Agent John Fitzgerald (Peter Sarsgaard), believing Havens is working with Miller, puts her back on the plane. Completely taken with Miller, Havens goes to the restroom. While she is in there, the remaining passengers attack Miller who kills them all. After a forward moment where Havens kisses Miller, he calmly informs her that both of the plane's pilots are dead and he is responsible. Believing it a joke, Havens plays along until Miller enters the cockpit and the bodies of the passengers begin to flop lifelessly in their seats. Crashing into a corn field, Miller delivers Havens home after drugging her and explaining that other agents will visit and that, if they constantly repeat that she is being taken somewhere "safe and secure", they are planning to kill or imprison her.
Waking up at home, Havens struggles through a day fitting a bridesmaid's dress for her sister's wedding, and is shocked to learn her sister would like to sell their father's Pontiac GTO tri-power, which Havens had planned on finishing as a wedding present. Havens is then picked up by a group ofintelligence agents. Miller arrives and, through a long gunfight on the highway, kills several agents and reclaims Havens.
Havens flees at the first opportunity and contacts Rodney (Marc Blucas), a firefighter and former boyfriend. Believing Havens is merely stressed and is playing out a fantasy, Rodney tries to comfort her until Miller arrives and kidnaps Havens, handcuffing her and shooting Rodney in a non-vital area, telling him the injury will make him a hero and virtually guarantee his promotion to lieutenant.
Miller explains that Havens is safer with him and Havens agrees to follow him as they go to pick up Simon Feck (Paul Dano), a genius inventor who has created a perpetual energy battery called the Zephyr. Miller arrives at his safe house where he left Feck, only to discover him missing, and the two are ambushed by men belonging to Antonio Quintana (Jordi Mollà), a Spanish arms dealer. After again drugging Havens, she drifts in and out of consciousness between their capture and escape from Quintana's men, and Miller brings her to an island that is off the grid, which Miller uses as a safe house. Accepting a call from her sister after leaving in frustration, Havens accidentally leads the CIA straight to the hideaway. They try to kill Miller and Havens with a drone.
Again knocking out Havens, Miller transports them to a train heading through the Alps, which Feck left as a message in code for Miller. Havens, missing a message from Miller, leaves to get dinner and encounters Bernhard (Falk Hentschel), a German assassin. Shortly afterwards, during a fight in the train's kitchen, Bernhard is killed by an oncoming train after being knocked through a window by Miller.
Miller, after leaving Havens and Feck in a hotel in Salzburg, Austria, leave to meet a cutout from Antonio and is followed by Havens, who is heartbroken to learn that Miller is apparently planning on selling the Zephyr to Quintana. After being picked up by the CIA and meeting the director of counter-intel, she uses a pen transmitter to notify them when Miller returns with the Zephyr, which is showing signs of overheating. After leading the CIA agents on a chase, Miller is apparently shot and falls into a canal.
Returning home, Havens heads to an address she remembered from Miller's iPhone, where she finds his parents and learns that his real name is Matthew Knight. They believe their son, a formerArmy sergeant and Eagle Scout, is dead; but they are fabulously wealthy from winning lotteries and sweepstakes they don't remember entering. Leaving a message on her own answering machine that she has the Zephyr, she is captured by Quintana's men and taken back to Spain. She is drugged with truth serum before being rescued by Miller, who was tracking Fitzgerald, who was delivering Feck to Quintana.
Chasing Fitzgerald, Miller saves Feck from a bullet wound after handing over the Zephyr in a small pouch. Feck comments that the battery is unstable. The battery explodes, killing Fitzgerald, and Miller collapses from a gunshot wound. After waking in the hospital, Miller receives an apology from the director, who tells him that Havens has returned home and claims that Miller can't be distracted and that they will move him somewhere "safe and secure." Miller is later given medication by a nurse, who turns out to be Havens. After Havens breaks Miller out of the hospital, he wakes up in the rebuilt GTO that belonged to Havens's father. After Miller asks what day it is, Havens kisses him and says it's someday. This is a reference from the start of the movie that they both have things they want to do someday, and Havens begins to drive towards Cape Horn.
