Sean and Beverly arrive in California to discover their brilliant lead actor and stage veteran has been replaced with Matt LeBlanc.

Sean and Beverly meet Matt LeBlanc for the first time at a dinner party, and he couldn't be more charming or flattering about their show. Unfortunately, over time the natural animosity between Matt and Beverly rises to the surface.

Beverly can't stand Matt LeBlanc, and the feeling is mutual. She leaves Sean to look after him, leading to an extended adventure in Las Vegas. Soon the two guys have bonded, leaving Beverly feeling excluded from her husband's new bromance.

Sean and Beverly retrieve Matt from a seedy bar in the outskirts of LA so that the paparazzo won't see him driving home drunk, leading to an all-night road trip which takes the trio from a run-in with the paparazzo to his ex-wife's house.

Sean's infatuation with actress Morning Randolph is given an opportunity to blossom when Matt invites the two of them to a charity benefit; Beverly and Carol share a joint and commiserate about the men in their lives.

Convinced that Sean is having an affair with Morning, Beverly packs a bag and leaves. In her distress, she doesn't realise she is driving on the wrong side of the road, until a head-on collision.
