Ella just lost her home, her job, and her car. So she has no real choice but to take up her twin sister Emma on her - quite particular - offer. Ella shall pretend to be Emma while the latter is away for a few weeks. So she goes from being single with no kids to having a family, dog and a really large car in a matter of hours. With the help of a smartphone with detailled notes, and a good-looking neighbor (who quickly calls her bluff), Ella rises to the challenge and actually does a pretty good job! Although the story itself is not necessarily plausible, it definitely is entertaining, features likable characters and some funny scenes. Towards the end I also saw more and more similarities to "Big Little Lies" by Liane Moriarty. Especially with the costume-themed-fundraiser as the grande finale.
