Synopsis
Excel works for Across, an organization bent on world domination to create a better society. She ain't exactly great at her job, but she definitely tries hard. And with her new partner from outer space, she ain't giving up. Meanwhile, three roommates get a job with a weird government agency, a foreign construction worker is forced to be the love slave to the embodiment of the universe (a vortex with slender, womanly arms), and a man with an Afro gets into all sorts of weird messes that remain unexplained. And this is only the tip of the iceberg to this hilariously twisted series!
