Ep 3. Ass Cubes

Andrea Warren (played by creator and star Andrea Savage) is a comedian, writer, and mom in Los Angeles who tries to navigate the ups and downs of marriage, parenting, and friendship in the sarcastic and cringe-inducing world of modern adult life. In episode three of the first season, titled "Ass Cubes," Andrea discovers that her husband Mike (Tom Everett Scott) has been hiding a secret from her: he's been obsessed with a new workout routine called "Ass Cubes," which involves doing exercises with small, cube-shaped weights placed between the butt cheeks. As Mike becomes increasingly invested in his Ass Cubes routine, Andrea struggles to understand his obsession with it and worries he's becoming too focused on his appearance. Meanwhile, Andrea's friend Jennifer (played by Judy Greer) tries to set Andrea up on a date with a man named James (played by Jason Mantzoukas) who she thinks is perfect for her, but Andrea is hesitant to take the plunge. Throughout the episode, Andrea faces a series of awkward and humorous situations, including a disastrous playdate with another mom and child, an uncomfortable trip to a fancy Jeopardy!-style trivia game show with Mike's demanding boss, and a botched attempt to confront Mike about his Ass Cubes obsession. Ultimately, "Ass Cubes" is a witty and relatable exploration of the challenges and hilarities of modern relationships, as Andrea navigates the delicate balance between supporting her husband's interests and maintaining her own sense of self.
