In the vibrant and colorful streets of Miami, Tasha "Tee" Wilson is the go-to nail tech for flawless nails and trendy designs-or so her Instagram page says. With her catchy hashtags and perfectly curated posts, she's booked solid for weeks on end. The catch? Tee has made a side hustle out of charging hefty deposits for nail appointments, only to ghost her clients when their big day rolls around. As the complaints pile up, a group of scorned clients, led by a fiercely determined influencer, band together for a scheme to take Tee down and teach her a lesson she'll never forget. What follows is a hilarious, chaotic series of events featuring beauty shop drama, petty revenge, and one nail tech trying to escape a mess she painted herself into. Polished Payback is a comedy about accountability, community, and, of course, the importance of keeping your receipts.

Kiara Reynolds, a 22-year-old from Atlanta, is on the run after being caught up in a dangerous web of lies, love, and crime. With no one to trust and nowhere to go, she flees to a small, gritty town in Alabama, hoping to disappear. Desperate for cash and anonymity, Kiara takes a job dancing at the only strip club in town-Nipplopolis, a dimly lit dive that's as shady as it is lively. As Kiara tries to lay low, she finds herself entangled in the dark underbelly of the town-where secrets run deeper than the Alabama soil and danger lurks behind every friendly smile. Her beauty and talent make her the star attraction at Nipplopolis, but they also attract the attention of powerful locals with hidden agendas. While dodging her past and struggling to build a new future, Kiara forms unexpected bonds with the women at the club and a mysterious bouncer with secrets of his own. But when her past catches up to her, Kiara must decide-keep running, or finally stand her ground and fight for the life she's been trying to reclaim.

Fourteen years ago, Derrick cheated on his fiancee just three days before their wedding. It was just a one-afternoon fling, a reaction to a silly fight he can no longer remember. Now, he's general manager for a profitable beer company; his wife and four kids are well-provided-for, with college funds and all the amenities they could desire. Derrick's in line for district manager, if he can keep up his business ethic, and he intends to... until she comes in as his fellow district manager. Derrick recognizes Delilah Bond, who matches the description of his fourteen-year-old mistake, but she recognizes him too and plots her revenge. Slightly shaken, he starts to see her everywhere, impossibly everywhere-touching the life of each of his children (their new tennis coach), involved with his wife (her new running partner), and hired at his company, though not in his division. Will Derrick be able to break this unbreakable bond or will his mistake follow him forever?
