A socially awkward genius and recent Harvard graduate, Carrie Pilby struggles to find her place in a world that seems filled with hypocrisy and superficiality. Living in New York City, she spends her days observing others and making lists of their flaws, while grappling with her own feelings of isolation and loneliness. Encouraged by her therapist, she embarks on a mission to complete a list of tasks designed to push her out of her comfort zone, including making a friend and going on a date. Through these experiences, Carrie learns to navigate the complexities of adulthood, discovering the importance of connection, empathy, and self-acceptance.
