A polite young woman gets a café job where her intimidating expression becomes the basis of the deliberately harsh character she is hired to perform.
Maika joins Stile, whose employees serve customers through assigned personality roles. The difference between those performances and the staff's private selves drives the workplace comedy.
The café sells a managed interaction as much as food and drink. Maika's difficulty making a soft first impression becomes useful in a role that asks her to sound severe, even though she wants to behave politely. Coworkers bring their own gaps between assigned persona and personality. That provides recurring comic friction alongside romantic misunderstandings. Consider it for a themed-café ensemble built around performance at work, without assuming that the employees' customer-facing roles fully describe their relationships away from the tables.
