SWIPE
SWIPE is the hot new dating app and DARBY LENNOX can’t seem to find love. Good thing she is constantly being set up, albeit with the wrong guys, by her one-time boyfriend turned good friend, CHRIS MASS.
Chris and Darby dated for a brief time, but we’re able to remain great friends when all was said and done. They know each so well that it’s the exact reason they are friends and not in a relationship any longer. Chris has a history of falling into bizarre sexual situations with anyone he dates. Recently, he’s been smitten with a former co-worker, KRIS JAMES, until a “disappearing condom” ended their one night romance. Chris is more than open to share his adventures with Darby and SEAN CARSON, his right hand man and because of Chris, Darby’s dear friend as well.
Sean is a voice over artist that just can’t seem to work enough to get out of his studio apartment and into the house of his dreams with the woman of his dreams… that cheated on him ending their three year relationship. Coming off a bad break up with “Ms. Noname,” Sean’s working back into the dating scene and what better way than thinking you slept with Jennifer Aniston after have a few cocktails!
Together this threesome tackle the dating world in Los Angeles the only way they know how – together they SWIPE!
