Well-intentioned Marsha and David hire a foreign housekeeper, Sophia, to care for their new baby and put some "sanity" back in their lives. What follows is a situation that spirals out of control. In a frenzy to find an American husband before her visa expires, Sophia manipulates poor Marsha and David into caring for her 10-year-old daughter while she goes on a dating marathon. Pretty soon, who is employing whom, becomes the comic question. Throw into the mix, Marsha's hypochondriac father, Sophia's eccentric Mama and cousin Sasha from the Moscow circus, and you have a hilarious farce in the tradition of our most beloved comedies.
