The series follows four middle-aged best friends John, Tom, Mike and Bill from college as they explore the world of dating, careers and friendship in a present-day society. John, the owner of a sandwich shop (A's & J's), struggles to make ends meet after an incident got him kicked out of college. He relies on his friends for everything and lives with his mother, Alice who constantly tolerates him. She co-owns the business with her son. Tom, a successful doctor, struggles to uphold his name when a incident from his past with one of his co-workers puts his career in jeopardy. Mike, who works as a lawyer, wants to settle down but struggles to put his womanizing ways to rest. His on-and-off girlfriend Pamela finds it hard to believe. Bill, who is an architect, is revisited from his ex, Regina who is recently engaged to one of his good friends from college so his mission is to win back her heart, due to infidelity which ended their relationship. Bill works hard to prove to her that he's a changed man. The four bruhs come together to get away from their everyday lives.
