Plot
Two underpaid, overworking assistants (Zoey Deutch, Glen Powell) hatch a plan to match-make their two bosses (Lucy Liu, Taye Diggs). If they can manage to do this, their heartbroken bosses might just lay off a little. These two assistants need a break, and a raise but they know there is no chance of that when their bosses are lost in the past. So to get what they need, and get them away from the past, they need to give them a future. These employees finding each other at this time of heartbreak may be luck, but it sure doesn't seem that way. These two go through it all to get their life and jobs back to normal. Nobody wants a confused boss, or things will get messy. This pair of matchmakers don't just set up their bosses but end up forming their own little bond on this fun and interesting journey.They also make an impressive team, almost like mindreading was real. Working might be what their life revolves around at the start, but can that change into something new?
