In “Fish!”, we meet the single mother of two named Mary Jane. After she moves to a new location, her husband dies unexpectedly. Now Mary Jane finds herself accepting a promotion to the dreaded “third floor” of the company she works for. Known as the “Toxic Energy Dump” full of zombies, floor three is the butt of almost all the jokes for the employees at First Guarantee Financial. It is Mary Jane’s responsibility and mission to turn her floor into a workplace people want to come to every morning, and she finds the inspiration she needs in an unlikely place – The Fish Market!
Changing your attitude and making each day a good day are the themes found in “Fish!”.
