After feeling isolated in New York City for five years, Lilly puts up 400 flyers around the city asking strangers to apply to be her friend. She creates a 40-question survey, receives 70 responses, and conducts 24 filmed interviews to see if friendship can work like a job application. In this first episode, Lilly explains why she invented her own system for making friends, interviews loneliness expert Dr. Sam Carr about attachment theory, and attempts to get closure from an ex-friend who ghosted her in college.
