Premise[edit]
When roommates Bud (Adam Fox), Mickey (Samuel Davison), and Tab (Joey Beni) struggle to pay their rent, they decide to find sugar daddies to pay their bills. Bud, the HBIC and brains behind the operation, decides that he will manage both Mickey and Tab's sugar app profiles to optimize results and motivate the roommates to go forth on this mission. Mickey, an undocumented Canadian immigrant, opposes Bud, believing in hard, honest work, as he works 5 jobs to pay his share of the rent. But after losing the majority of his sources of income, Mickey succumbs to Bud's pressure and reluctantly joins the app, to some success. Tab, the resident himbo and predominantly heterosexual character Himbo goes along with Bud's antics, and comes to find he might not be as straight as he believed. In spite of Bud's determination, he learns that living life to the fullest at everyone’s expense has consequences. Moreover, the show depicts the trials and tribulations of using love and youth as currency; that although both parties may believe the interaction is transactional, when feelings are involved, the reward is high, but the risk is even higher. Through ups and downs the babies experience some growth, but like all toxic millennials existing in cyclical habits and patterns, we can trust that when they run out of treats, the boys will be back to their old tricks.
