Getting the coveted front cover is every stylist’s goal, and Ryan is on track for the following issue.  His dream gets delayed when Ning, a Beijing movie star hoping to crossover to US audiences, specifically requests a Chinese-American stylist for his next photo shoot. Already disgruntled that he’s not getting the cover, Ryan is even more perturbed when asked to meet his new client in Chinatown. Ning’s messy entourage and Ryan’s very Asian parents add to the chaos. Both men confront personal, career, and moral issues as their budding relationship is tested. (David Gonzalez)
