NOTES

"Two down-on-their-luck comedians embark on a road tour and find more than a few good laughs on the way. Olivia Vincent dreams of stand-up comedy stardom. Bustling around a busy Manhattan office by day and hustling from club to club by night, she can't catch a break. Work is falling through the cracks, and after ditching a major client to make a performance, Olivia gets the boot. Determined to pursue her dreams, she snags an audition in Los Angeles for a coveted spot on late-night TV. But the only way to get there is to join Nick Leto, a seasoned stand-up, on a cross-country road tour. She agrees on one condition-no funny business. Icky comedy condos, tiny smoking nightclubs, and Nick's incessant classic rock radio are a far cry from life on the Upper East Side. Reality sets in, and Olivia wonders if she can hack it in showbiz or if she's just a hack. As Nick helps Olivia improve her act along the way, sparks begin to fly, igniting what they thought was an impossible flame. Maybe being stuck with Nick in a Jeep isn't so bad. As long as it doesn't get in the way of Olivia's actual funny business"--
