Production took place remotely in the performers' homes while under quarantine—check out the pair engaging in some socially undistant activities in the trailer above.

Tony winner Odom Jr. (Hamilton) plays James, who is normally on the road for work but is now in quarantine with his partner Sade, played by Robinson (Waitress). Now under the same roof, the pair must reevaluate their relationship while raising their daughter.

The cast also includes fellow real-life husband-and-wife Gil Bellows and Rya Kihlstedt and their daughter Ava Bellows, as well as Tommy Dorfman, Rainey Qualley, and L. Scott Caldwell.

Odom Jr. and Robinson also serve as executive producers alongside Joanna Johnson, Christine Sacani, and Robyn Meisinger.
