The series is set in present-day California, mostly at a café named "The Saying" owned by Thomas Foster, who is helped by his granddaughter Isabella and his employees. Episodes usually center around the customers who, most of the time, are dealing with a problem. Throughout the episode a proverb is written in one of the white walls of the café, either by Thomas, one of his employees, or by a customer. The saying that is written usually describes the situation of what is happening in the particular moment it is written.
