Samantha Fischer— (Female or Female-Identifying) 25/35 years old: An anxiety-ridden depressive doodler with wanderlust. She jumps from job to job as she searches for purpose in her life.

Synopsis:

It’s Friday night, and Samantha, a dispirited legal assistant, has one more assignment to tackle before she can leave for the weekend. One of the law firm’s clients has died, and he’s left behind a list of individuals to be notified of his death… and that job has fallen to Samantha.
