A journalist and a book publisher are good friends. They both show up for a major book fair. They interact with others interested in book publishing and sales. Two men who are supposed to be from the US southwest talk like two cowboys in a bad 1920's movie (call the publisher "little lady" and refer to little doggies). This cringe-worth dialogue isn't the worse. The journalist goes with her friend to a party. She wants to order two gin and tonics but says to the bartender she wants two "panty droppers!" The title, in my opinion, refers to this movie in that it murders the English language. I took it off my Roku favorite list after watching for 20 minutes. Then I read a book to resuscitate my brain.
