32-year-old Maddie Barker is an Uber driver and bartender in Montauk, New York. She is facing bankruptcy after her car is repossessed as she owes property taxes on a home she inherited from her mother. Desperate to avoid losing the home, she accepts an unusual Craigslist posting. Her new employers, a pair of helicopter parents known as the Beckers, ask her to “date” their 19-year-old son Percy Becker in exchange for a Buick Regal. Percy has had no experiences with girls, drinking, parties, or sex, and his parents hope to boost his confidence before he attends Princeton University in the fall.
