A lighthearted, energetic comedy about a mother-daughter con team whose schemes and banter drive a plot built on romantic deception and clever manipulation.

Max and Page are a brilliant mother/daughter con team who have their grift down to a fine science. Max targets wealthy, willing men and marries them. Page then seduces them, and Max catches her husband in the act. Then it's off to palimony city and the next easy mark.
