Jake is rough around the edges, without a degree, and some, including Amanda's family, see him as a slacker. In the City of Angels, nothing happens as planned for the young couple as they face the realities of adulthood: family, career, friendship, lodging, finances, love and towed cars. From setbacks to surprises, Amanda and Jake try to find their place in the sprawling city. Will they make the right choices?
