While the net curtains in the sleepy neighbourhood of Agrestic begin to twitch, Nancy becomes a big cog in the community's surprisingly lucrative supply chain.
Without her DEA-agent husband to protect her, it's pretty much open season on Nancy: Gangs want her marijuana; busybody neighbor Celia (Elizabeth Perkins) knows her secret and is hellbent to lord it over her; and she's forced to take a job under Sullivan Groff (Matthew Modine), the head of a "values-based community" named Majestic aiming to co-opt the infrastructure of Agrestic, Nancy and Celia's suburban purgatory, for its own serpentine schemes.
[ILLUSTRATION OMITTED] 5 Doug (Kevin Nealon) is Nancy's best customer, her accountant--and a city council member of Weeds' "ticky-tacky" planned community, Agrestic.
