Pilot
Following an on-the-job breakdown Amy Jellicoe, a corporate buyer, returns home from an extended stay in a holistic treatment center. With a kinder-and-gentler attitude, Amy moves in with her mom, Helen, while making overtures to her company, Abaddonn Industries, to get her job back. Meanwhile, she reconnects with her ex-husband, Levi, but a relaxing evening short-circuits when he reverts to his old ways. The next morning, after reciting her new mantra - "I will change, and I will be an agent of change" - Amy returns to the office to start a new chapter in her life. But will Abaddonn take her back?
Now Or Never
Amy's hopes of landing a dream job take a hit when she's demoted to the basement of Abaddonn, working in data entry amongst a group of social misfits. The job has its perks, however, as she uncovers a litany of corporate improprieties while surfing the net in her downtime. Meanwhile, Amy's attempts to improve the lives of her ex-husband Levi and mom Helen fall on deaf ears.
Someone Else's Life
Jealous of Krista's good fortune and fed up with her humiliation at Abaddonn, Amy considers leaving the company for a socially responsible job at a homeless shelter. But the low pay, combined with a huge unpaid bill from the treatment center, give her pause.
The Weekend
Wary of reverting to her old, hard-partying ways on her first weekend home, Amy talks Levi into taking a rafting excursion to the Kern River, which they frequented during happier times, when they were married. The idyllic trip takes a downturn, however, when Amy discovers that her mission to implement change in Levi may be more difficult than she realized.
Not Good Enough Mothers
After learning on TV about the deportation woes of a Mexican-born mother, Amy tries to motivate her co-workers to join her at a lunchtime rally for the family. Later, with the support of Tyler, she decides to organize a women's group at Abaddonn, and looks to enlist Judy, head of human resources, by taking her out to dinner. She also targets Krista's baby shower as a place to recruit members, but learns her cause and passion aren't shared by the suburban domestic set.
Sandy
Amy is thrilled when Sandy, whom she'd met in Hawaii during group therapy, comes to visit for a couple of days. Their kindred relationship starts to erode when Helen refuses to put up Sandy for another night, forcing Amy to drop her friend off with Levi. When Sandy fails to show up to teach a lunch-time yoga session at Abaddonn, Amy's baser instincts get the better of her.
Lonely Ghosts
A disturbing dream leads Amy to confront the emptiness in her life - and her lingering feelings for Levi. At work, after Dougie gets a promotion, she looks to get into his good graces by setting him up with Harper, a pretty co-worker of Krista's who had attended the yoga session. The incident brings her closer to Tyler, who has his own issues with loneliness.
Comrades Unite!
Friction increases between Amy, Dougie and the staff when she finds herself reported to HR for job deficiencies. Desperate to move out of the department, Amy tries to get Krista to get her a meeting with Damon, with predictable results.
Consider Helen
Amy goes off to work, leaving Helen alone with her thoughts and memories, including those of her late husband, Jim. At the grocery store, Helen runs into Carol, an old friend whose husband used to work with Jim, and endures the prerequisite pictures of children and grandkids. Later, Levi stops by to drop off a photo album - and ends up venting about Helen's role in his breakup with Amy.
Burn It Down
After Levi goes ballistic in the middle of the night, Amy convinces him to follow in her footsteps and get treatment at Open Air. At work, a reinvigorated Amy talks Damon into letting her present her research findings to his group, but Dougie, who no longer talks to Amy without a ???witness,??? won't let her leave the office. Amy makes her presentation anyway and pays the price, both with Damon's team and with Dougie. Bristling but still battling, Amy turns to Tyler for the key to forcing change, finally, at Abaddonn.
