About “Seconds”
Katie is a talented young chef who runs a successful restaurant and has big plans for a new location. However, her progress stalls, her ex-boyfriend returns, a romantic relationship ends badly, and her best waitress is injured. Her life takes a turn for the worse. A mysterious girl gives her a strange method for a second chance: write her mistake, eat a mushroom, sleep, and wake up with everything changed. Katie follows the instructions and gets a fresh start, but she also finds a drawer full of magical mushrooms. She becomes determined to make her life perfect, ignoring the rules. Her actions lead to unexpected consequences.
