Ever since Alexis, a young composer, moved in with her boyfriend in uptown Manhattan, her pat parrot has been having an anxiety attack.

And is it really a good idea to start downing shots of a so-called truth serum?

Plucker is an old-school farce about a new generation dealing with the anxieties of commitment and co-habitation.
