Synopsis: Set inside of a luxury used car dealership in Memphis, this story centers around five women at the prime of their life who all work together under the authority of an overbearing, unfair and verbally abusive female boss, who herself has not only broken the glass ceiling but breaks all levels of human resource practices including Sexual Harassment.
