Jerry's failing advertising company is struggling to keep up with its most important projects, so when his girlfriend "asks" him to create a commercial for her terrible new product (a yoga mat with a blender on it), he comes up with an innovative idea- to take the worst person from each department and assemble them to create the commercial. Hilarity ensues as the "Z Team" works to create an unforgettable commercial for the world's worst product: The Bend and Blend.
