Plaza plays Darius, a depressed
college grad who isn’t sure about her future.
She lives with her father—who notes her unhappiness—and interns at a
magazine run by misfits. Despite her
intelligence, Darius can’t land a paying job as a waitress because of the
palpable gloominess surrounding her.
“You’re just not a quality hire,”
concludes one restaurant manager.
Seems Darius hasn’t quite gotten
over the death of her mother, who died making a convenience store run for her
then-ungrateful daughter. But there’s
hope; our heroine’s favorite song is “Somewhere Over the Rainbow.”
