Three couples in Vancouver navigate their relationships: first jobs first crises professional jealousy an affair and lack of communication. Noah and Zipporah marry after a brief courtship. She wants to be a singer and stalls out when she fails. He's working hard at a business that may go under. Sarah and Shane are architects; he can't handle her success at a downtown firm. Leslie is a librarian sour and prickly; her mate Peter is a college teacher whose head is turned by a student. Can any of these couples sort things out and stay together? Should they?
