It stars Martin Starr as Joe, a programmer and obsessive self-quantifier, and Mae Whitman as Emily, a budding comedy performer, who are a happily married couple until they decide to use one another in their work.

Joe (Martin Starr) is a programmer with a crippling anxiety problem who is unable to deal with uncertainty.

At work he is tasked with creating an interactive call center answering machine that can convey empathy.

Emily works at the front desk of a swanky hotel during the day and has an uncanny ability to soothe even the most irate guests (at night she performs with a comedy group at the Neo-Futurists).

After years of being happily married, the pressures of work, family, and personal growth have strained their relationship.
