Description

The trailer begins with Ryan Bingham (Clooney) narrating to explain how many airline miles he travels and what he does for a living. He goes to companies to assist with firing people. One disgruntled employee throws a fit and is shown pouring bleach in a coffee pot.

Then the plot is revealed. Craig Gregory presents a new hire, Natalie, that Bingham needs to train.

Bingham has a relationship with a woman, Alex, but it's revealed he could work on his relationships. He tells Natalie that he hasn't had a soul-reaching relationship.

More scenes are shown that show how isolated Bingham is, and how he distances himself from the human connection of the firings. At one of them, a fired employee asks "Aren't you supposed to be consoling me?"
