description
A failed, alcoholic ex-marketing guru is sent to Ohio on a last long-shot assignment, in search of innovative idea that can save an ailing food company. After an accident in a mall parking lot, he’s rescued by a trio of teenagers who reluctantly agree to share an average night in their average lives with him. What follows—bonding, secrets, and ultimately tragedy—reveal truths to both teens and guru that none are fully prepared to confront.
Told with a distinctly comic voice and a sharp eye for the absurdities of contemporary American culture, The Probable Outcomes contemplates the unexpected connections between youth and adulthood, disillusionment and redemption, and regret and idealism.
