This is something that's become a big part of the news because people, a lot of comedians especially, are very upset because the people who paid the comedians to come to this are not good people. It's a pretty brutal regime. They've done a lot of horrible, horrible things... I'm curious as to why you decided to do that.

Ansari plays Arj, a struggling documentary editor in L.A. who makes money by working part-time at a hardware store and a Taskrabbit-style company called "Task Sergeant," where his tasks can range from waiting in line for people who want viral cinnamon buns to organizing messy garages. It's grueling and demeaning work which leaves Arj subject to the whims of unforgiving clients who stiff him on payment for things that are outside of his control (the cinnamon buns run out before his turn in line.)
