Welcome to the Woolworth's lunch counter in Clarksville, Tenn., where four feisty Southern women take orders, move the plates - and manage each other's lives.

From manager Lib Stallsworth (who occasionally channels Tammy Wynette) to gruff old-timer Lynette, salty divorcee Betty Ruth and starstruck teenager Janita - along with sweet, slow Donnie Ray, the bus boy - the countergirls alternately nurture and scrap in this comic tale of burgeoning and diminishing dreams.
