Abed shows us Los Angeles through the eyes of an angel named Daya (Fuchs) who's become mesmerized by the city's interconnected yet utterly isolated inhabitants, particularly its struggling and flawed artists, frauds, and drug addicts. Of particular interest to Daya is suicidal actress Maya (Fine) and murderous femme fatales Marlena (Barnett), Danielle (Strain), and Honey (Dowling). An angel named Gadi (Meir) tries to prevent Daya from interfering in their lives, but he is unable to stop the empathetic Daya as she is drawn into the frightening and twisted machinations of the city's underbelly.
