Rebecca (Dratch) is turning fifty but doesn’t want to make a big deal out of it. Her friend, Abby (Poehler), convinces her that a girls trip to wine country in the Napa Valley would make for the perfect getaway.

They’ve since moved on to different states, careers, and lives and rarely get together as the big group of six friends.
