PlotIn Los Angeles, a wealthy businessman hires a vivacious streetwise woman for a week to accompany him as he navigates the social obligations of his work. Initially, their arrangement is strictly professional: he needs a date for a series of high-profile business events, and she needs the lucrative payday. As the week progresses, their relationship evolves from a mere financial transaction into a complex connection, challenging their preconceptions about society, morality, and love. Their interactions reveal the stark contrasts in their lifestyles and backgrounds, highlighting the intense scrutiny and judgement from those in the businessman's elite social circle.
Despite the initial arrangement, the pair find themselves drawn to each other, experiencing a series of insightful and transformative encounters. They navigate a world where appearances and reputation are paramount, and they must confront their own insecurities and desires. As they spend more time together, they start to influence each other's views on life and love, questioning the boundaries that society imposes on them. Their growing bond becomes a test of whether two people from vastly different worlds can bridge the gap between them, leading them to reevaluate what they truly want from their lives and each other.
