Navigating a series of misadventures, Cora collides with Tom (The Good Place's Manny Jacinto), who finds himself inexplicably drawn to her gruff demeanor. A chance for romance presents itself — if she could just get it together! Embarking on an absurd, volatile journey of self-discovery, Cora confronts the self-induced roadblocks that have halted her progress and attempts to clean up her messes with riotously rocky results.
