A charming romantic comedy about two academics whose fake relationship becomes real, built on warmth, playful banter, and the collision of carefully constructed theories with genuine emotion.

Olive Smith, a biology PhD candidate, and Dr. Adam Carlsen, a hotshot professor and well-known tyrant, enter into a fake relationship, seeing each of their carefully calculated theories on love get thrown into chaos.
