Spoilers ahead
In the near future, the Department of Emotional Integrity (D.E.I.) issues relationship scores that determine how people are treated and what opportunities they can access in society.
Ben [Aaron Yoo] is denied a job at Origin, a design company, because of a low relationship score, while Sara [Brittany Ishibashi] secures a business loan for a new cafe thanks to her high score. Ben’s friend Henry [Chris Riedell] nudges him to visit the D.E.I. with Sara so they can boost his numbers together. At the D.E.I., Ben and Sara clash over their conflicting memories of their past relationship, but they eventually reconcile and agree to shoulder 50-50 responsibility. This mutual concession pushes Ben’s score up enough to land him a designer role at Origin.
