Everything that can go wrong does go wrong in this comedy of errors.

Keke Palmer and SZA play best friends in a tricky financial situation in this buddy comedy.

Palmer and SZA play Dreux and Alyssa, best friends who live together in the Baldwin Village neighbourhood of Los Angeles.

Waitress Dreux is working hard to become a franchise manager of her diner while Alyssa is a laidback artist who has let her boyfriend Keshawn (Joshua Neal) move in.
