The premise

Dr. Syd has a good practice in the big city but a bad day when her terminal patient finally passes away. Her surgeon boyfriend, whom her best friend Brenda has sarcastically nicknamed Mr. Personality and Settle For, takes this opportunity to offer support but destroys it by telling Syd that dying is part of life and she'd be a better doctor if she stayed more remote from her patients and, oh, by the way, can I come over tonight? He is surprised when she says not tonight. Brenda tells Syd to get away for a few days and suggests Syd change her mind and go back to her small hometown for her school reunion. Brenda points out that since Syd hasn't been back since her father's funeral, she'll be the star of the reunion as a successful doctor who wears the same size as she did in high school. Since Syd hasn't talked to anyone in that village in years, not even her mother, she's unprepared for the collision, between her memories of the past and the truth she finds in the village of today.
