Ben Donovan is a self-involved manager of a second-rate San Diego sports arena who begins to re-evaluate his life on his 40th birthday. Working alongside him is his boss and arena owner, Crystal--attractive, powerful and highly erratic; Alice--the cute, tomboyish marketing director and Bens friend with benefits; Alonzo--a former basketball player, handsome and unbelievably happy; Bens assistant, Heather--pretty, sweet, but terrifying because she once lit a boyfriend on fire; Crystals son, Roman--sweet-faced, clueless and Bens newest employee; and a hapless operations crew whom Ben refers to collectively as the Steves.
