Still reeling from her own declining health problems, Tig struggles to find her footing with the loss of the one person in her life who understood her. All while dealing with her clingy girlfriend and her dysfunctional family.

A darkly-comedic drama with strong elements of magic realism about a well-off, progressive, multiracial family from Portland, Oregon made up of husband Greg, a philosophy professor and disillusioned idealist suffering from midlife identity crisis who regularly cheats on his wife with a prostitute; his wife Audrey, a therapist who always tries to do the right thing and find common ground in every conflict; their three adopted children, a daughter from Liberia named Ashley who runs her own retail fashion website, a son from Vietnam named Duc who is a womanizer and works as a life coach, and a gay son from Colombia named Ramon who is studying video-game design and starts suffering from psychic visions of the numbers 11:11; and their only biological daughter Kristen, a high-school junior. With violence, intolerance, and hatred on the rise as sexual, spiritual, and gender identities become more fluid, the family finds their sanity tested and values challenged, and Ramon's visions eventually become more apocalyptic. Due to cancellation, the series ends on an explosive cliffhanger.
