The nation is in the middle of a pandemic and Nina has been left in charge of the essential oils shop she works at in White Plains, New York. She is desperately trying to make a go of her adult life but is frustrated by her current lack of options. If she leaves the store to fly back home and be with her family, she loses her job and the whole reason for being in New York in the first place.
