Robert has been called a misanthrope, to some extent. And it's true, for the most part. He prefers to stay at home with his two cats and only go into work when he has to. And at work, he works as a lab assistant. He does this job because he claims to like the organization and quiet. However, it's more that he prefers to be away from people. He makes all of his meetings virtual and works hard to avoid people. But he enjoys experiencing different fresh drinks. Which is how he happens to meet a very extroverted and peppy, though scatterbrained, young woman named Ruth, who is always on the hunt for the best oranges for the best fresh-squeezed orange juice. Not sure why she is quite so alluring, though troublesome, Robert decides to try to help her, for no reason he could explain to anyone... even himself.
