Plot:
Emily Middleton is an entitled and self-absorbed millennial who spends much of her time taking selfies and posting them online to show people that she has a happy life, although it's actually unfocused. She scrambles to find a travel companion for a non-refundable trip to a beach resort in Ecuador that should have been a romantic getaway for her and her musician boyfriend Michael--but he has just broken up with her. Emily is able to convince her initially-reluctant long-divorced mother, proverbial crazy cat lady Linda Middleton, to accompany her, asking her solely in not wanting to drink alone, and upon discovering that Linda, in her youth, had a sense of joie de vivre no longer evident in her now seemingly overly cautious life. Beyond her cats, Linda dotes on Emily's brother, proverbial geek Jeffrey Middleton, who not only still lives with her but never leaves home in his agoraphobia and she does everything for him. While Linda is befriended by retired couple Ruth and Barb at the resort, Emily catches the eye of James and believes he could be her vacation fling. Emily may not be able to find out after she and Linda, in reluctantly accompanying Emily off the resort property, not only get stranded in the middle of nowhere without money or their phones, but are the target of violent extortionists. Needing to find their way to the safety of a US Consulate in a big city, they must work together to evade the extortionists--not the easiest thing for the two of them to do in their differences.
