Second Act
Her talent was real. Her résumé was not.
Value Shop assistant manager Maya Vargas wants only one thing for her 43rd birthday -- a promotion.

When she loses the job to a college-educated candidate, Maya sets out to prove to Madison Avenue that street smarts are as valuable as book smarts -- and it's never too late for a second act.
