Storyline
SYNOPSIS: While on a date at a comedy club, ambitious professional Annie embarrasses herself when she fails to heckle a comedian. A video of the interaction goes viral, and Annie sets out to get the credit she believes she deserves, at the cost of her date and her job. When it is announced that the comedian will open for a nightly comedy broadcast, Annie plans to break into the studio to heckle him one last time.
