Dating can be tough, frustrating, and downright humiliating. At the same time, it can reveal who we truly are. When Jake receives a Halloween party invitation from a woman he just met on Tinder, he must navigate an apartment full of roommates, Jewish frat boys, and his own insecurities in pursuit of love.
