SYNOPSIS
Lily, an overly anxious thirty-something, has an important dinner date planned tonight. This is the make-or-break moment for her possible relationship with the stunningly beautiful Taylor. But a night that was supposed to be calm and romantic turns chaotic when she accidentally summons a charismatic, over-the-top, reggaeton artist into her home by playing a magical vinyl record. El Reggaetonero learns of Lily's date and attempts to convince her that he can help her woo Taylor. When begging and pleading for him to leave doesn't work, her date moves forward with a Reggaetonero who feeds her questionable advice between breaking out into musical numbers.
