Meet Sam Fox, harried single mother of three and struggling actress, as she attempts to make it through a trying day and an exhausting night.

Sam finds that the kids have trashed the house while she was away, her gynecologist delivers unexpected news, and she has to speak at a women and girls empowerment seminar at Frankie's high school.

Sam brings home a colleague for dinner, Mel, the director of the film she's working on.

Sam is considered for the lead in a sitcom, but lots of factors are at play.

When Frankie gets ill and one of the mothers on her soccer team undergoes a difficult surgery, Sam finds herself contemplating mortality, and asks Phil whether she's made a living will.

Sam and her gay friend, Rich, agonize about getting older and about men older than them dating much younger women.
