Plot
After decades of advocating for legalized cannabis usage, Ruth Whitefeather Feldman (Kathy Bates) employs her newly graduated son and a team of young "budtenders" to help run her Los Angeles cannabis dispensary. Along the way, her business runs into trouble thanks to the efforts of professional marijuana web show hosts Dank and Dabby. The duo gets the dispensary into trouble with both the DEA and the federal government, accidentally selling cannabis to minors and smoking in a national forest. Ruth is tasked with dealing with the pair of them while also managing her business as well as her personal life as an aging, seemingly goalless former activist, struggling to find a new purpose.
