The Comeback

In 2023, when rehearsals for her Broadway debut in Chicago go sideways, Valerie retreats to LA and joins the picket line during the WGA/SAG-AFTRA strike. Three years later, with her career plateaued, Billy comes to Valerie with an exciting offer: the new steaming service NuNet wants her to star in their upcoming multi-cam. The catch? The show is going to be written by AI.

After a successful meeting with the NuNet team, Val accepts the offer to star in How's That?! - a new sitcom they're creating for her - but the president of the network tells her that the AI angle is a secret. Then, after meeting the married showrunners at the production meeting, Val woos a legendary pilot director by sharing the secret.

On the first day of How's That rehearsals, Valerie bonds with her new castmates, clashes with her new costume designer, and discovers that the showrunner Josh feels threatened by AI. Then, Valerie's new hairdresser Tommy stirs up her unresolved feelings over her former hairdresser Mickey's death.

After taping the pilot, Valerie welcomes a new director but is forced to do damage control when the AI writing program delivers an unusable script for the second episode. Reluctantly leaning into her executive producer role, Valerie appeals to the showrunner Mary and a very distracted Billy to get the studio involved.
