A character-driven comedy-drama about a fiercely protective bar manager navigating workplace loyalty, economic precarity, and personal disappointment across a single grueling day.

Lisa Conroy is general manager at a highway-side 'sports bar with curves', Double Whammies. She nurtures and protects her employees fiercely - but over the course of one trying day, her optimism is battered from every direction. Double Whammies sells a big, weird American fantasy, but what happens when reality pokes a bunch of holes in it?
