Etwas muss sich ändern, aber was wenn die ganze Welt gegen einen scheint? Snehas Abschluss fällt in den Schlund der amerikanischen Rezession, und doch gehört sie zu den Glücklichen. Für ihre erste Stelle zieht sie nach Milwaukee; und obwohl der Job aufreibend ist, eröffnet er ihr unverhoffte Möglichkeiten: Sie kann die Drinks ihrer neuen Freunde bezahlen und ihren Eltern in Indien Geld schicken. Sneha stürzt sich auch ins Dating und verknallt sich bald in die Tänzerin Marina. Doch der Druck ist groß, und bald zeigt sich, dass dieses gute neue Leben auf wackeligen Beinen steht.
