Season 4 Plot
Nick returns from sabbatical to find he and Commodity Staffing have been sued out of business and pushed out of his office space by Celltons, a cell phone button-maker. Having lost everything in the lawsuit, Nick takes a temp job transcribing video resume submissions for Celltons' Head of Human Acquisitions, Alina Deloris (Rachel Risen). When Celltons CEO, Eve Randall (Illeana Douglas) threatens layoffs, Nick plots to get Alina fired by recruiting only the least-qualified temps who apply to work at Celltons including Nancy Roder (Taryn Southern) and Stevie P. (Sandeep Parikh). Nick succeeds in getting Alina fired and convinces Eve to hire him as Celltons’ new head of Human Acquisitions.
