Description: AA successful day for Emily - interior designer and total bitch -- is throttling her husband Kevin and tormenting his best friend Raymond - to their mutual satisfaction. A good day for Raymond is venting his frustrations on Emily's fine form and getting a glimpse of her even finer daughter Shelley. A tolerable day for Kevin is just avoiding Emily - until he meets a surprising young woman who sees through his dim wits to the kindly man beneath. Emily's a maelstrom of malice, but there's only so far she can push Kevin and Raymond before the storm finally breaks.
