Each episode focuses on a different catering assignment, often featuring clients whose wealth or eccentricity sweeps the story into someplace unexpected. Henry is in love with coworker Casey Kline (Lizzie Caplan), a talented young actress on the cusp of big things. Featuring a solid supporting and recurring cast that includes Jane Lynch, Ken Jeong, Kristen Bell, and Joey Lauren Adams as well as numerous guest appearances by comedic actors in guest roles as each week's client.
