Synopsis

The series follows three suburban Michigan mothers, Beth, Ruby and Annie, who are each experiencing various financial difficulties. They decide to pull off an unlikely heist, robbing a local supermarket, in order to help mitigate their money problems. Their successful robbery attracts the attention of the store manager after he recognizes Annie as one of the robbers, and of gang leader Rio, who was using the supermarket as a front to store and launder counterfeit money. The mothers subsequently find themselves caught in a series of gang heists, debts, secrets, and familial crises.
