Spoilers ahead

Flight attendant Montana Moore (Paula Patton) has always felt the weight of her mother’s (played by Jenifer Lewis) fervent belief in the sanctity of marriage, especially considering her mother’s many past unions. Sadly, Montana’s romantic endeavors have not mirrored that ideal. She has practical expectations for a partner—he must be faithful, prioritizing her over work, be easygoing, and financially secure—but deep down, her greatest fear is being alone.
