Monogamy doesn't run strong in Claire and Ali's paternal bloodline. But there's a healthy way of dealing with the desire for more than one partner -- for instance, Ali and her boyfriend Art have invited Jas, a woman they met on an open relationships app, to join them for a threesome -- and a not-so-healthy way, like how Claire is cheating on her fiancé, Zach, with her coworker, a guy named, in all seriousness, String. When all six of these people find themselves stuck in the same house for what was supposed to be a beach weekend, the result is something of a dramatic farce: intensely felt, emotionally raw, and laugh-out-loud funny.
