George Decker has a dream of escaping his life and jetting to the Bahamas, but getting there will mean finding a way to rid himself of his wife, his crushing debts, his demeaning nine-to-six job, and an American culture that he feels has been specifically designed to torture him. Annie Decker, George’s wife, has a dream, too: booking the lead role in an infomercial for the "WOW! Sponge, " which is the most watched television program in America. As Annie’s acting career approaches new heights, George’s frustrations send him plummeting towards rock bottom, and the lives of these selfish, striving people intersect in ways that are hilarious, violent, and spectacularly unpredictable.
