“Happy
Hour” ... free buffalo wings ... half-priced drinks ... and the time
between the end of one relationship and the start of another…
Straight arrow HENRY BECKMAN
(John Sloan) had it all: a great job, a perfect girlfriend and a sweet
apartment. He was a big fish in the small pond of Amsterdam, Missouri.
Then, as soon as he let HEATHER (Brooke D’Orsay) talk him into moving
to Chicago to work in her family business, it all went wrong. In the
span of one morning, Henry gets dumped by Heather, the girl he thought
was “the one,” learns he can no longer work for Heather’s uncle,
and gets kicked out of their apartment. It’s in this vulnerable state
that he finds his new roommate, a vain, flashy, loveable rogue named
LARRY CONE (Lex Medlin).
Larry has just lost his own
roommate and best friend, BRAD (Nat Faxon). In Larry’s opinion, Brad
has suffered a fate worse than death – he’s gotten engaged to the
shrew TINA (Jamie Denbo), a cold and controlling fiancée who’s immune
to Larry’s considerable charm. Larry needs a new roommate, but more
than that he needs somebody to listen to his provocative theories about
life and women. After all, one can’t be a charismatic leader without
followers.
