Carrie’s in trouble. She decked that wan, ‘Chelle and now the boss says she has “anger management,” issues.

Ewan’s in trouble. He gave himself a black eye in the jax and now the Aul Fella thinks he has “anxiety” issues.
One therapist’s office. Two people hard-wired for cock-up. Can you say, “Fresh  Start?”
Nah, didn’t think so.
From the Company that brought you RISK (2016) and Spandex Blues (2016), Whiskey Tango Foxtrot brings back ABSOLUTE BEGINNERS, a bittersweet comedy about finding help in unexpected ways.
