Drew struggles with loneliness during his COVID isolation and turns to a dating app for help. Meanwhile, Alice has caught her boyfriend sneaking around behind her back with another woman and is eager to move on to a new relationship. Through a series of satirical musical numbers about the state of the world and modern dating, the pair's stories intertwine and play out in a manner that toes the line between light-hearted and dark comedy.
