A renowned New York Times food writer with an unhealthy lifestyle, Olivia "Liv" Healy, heads out to Sydney, Australia, after receiving an offer to serve as judge on an upcoming cooking competition television show, to visit her longtime best friend, Amy Kwan, on her 40th birthday. During her time in Sydney, Liv's US green card is stolen. While attending the AJA awards ceremony, where Amy is a nominee, Liv unwittingly insults Amy's editor-in chief, Helen King, which drives a wedge between Amy and Liv. While applying for a new green card, Liv faints and wakes up the next day in the clinic of the consulate office. Dr. Priyanka Singh, a consulate physician, tells her that she fainted due to her high cholesterol and rules her as unqualified for the green card for health reasons unless she lowers her cholesterol levels by the following year. Liv storms out of the clinic, declaring that she will lower her cholesterol levels in less than four weeks.
