 Is it possible for a guy and a girl to be 100% platonic friends?   

When Bailey meets Charlie on a 10-hour flight, they debate this question and don’t actually come up with an answer because they’re too busy arguing. About every little thing, for the entire duration of the flight. She finds him obnoxious and infuriating, and he finds her annoyingly uptight. Both are oh-so-happy to walk in separate directions once the plane lands.    

When their paths cross two years later – what are the odds in a city of one million - they pick-up right where they left off, launching into a lengthy debate that includes - of course - that BIG question. He says no, she says yes, and they exchange a terse goodbye. Some things never change.  

But when they run into each other the following year, they bond over a shared trauma and decide that they maybe CAN be friends. Since each finds the other utterly unappealing and would rather be waterboarded than go out on a date, they’re confident they can make it work. Why not, right?  But some things do change…
