S2E2: What Up, Fam - Liza on Demand - Summary

Summary

The summary is:

A woman named Liza works at a DNA testing facility and accidentally sneezes in a sample, which leads to a woman named Sloane showing up at her door, claiming to be her long-lost cousin. Liza pretends to be related to Sloane and her wealthy family, who are eager to embrace their newfound Indian heritage. Liza's roommates, Harlow and Oliver, join her in the deception and try to benefit from the family's connections and generosity. However, Liza soon realizes that the family is not as perfect as they seem, and that they are exploiting their minority status for their own gain. She decides to come clean and reveal the truth, but not before causing some chaos and drama at their family reunion. She also learns that Sloane's brother Hughes, whom she was dating, was only interested in her because he thought they were cousins.
