Synopsis
Ever since his wife passed away, Lawrence Wetherhold has become overly acerbic and self-absorbed. He's alienated his son and transformed his daughter into a friendless overachiever. Now, at the precise moment Lawrence thought he had finally figured it all out, his life comes crashing down all around him as he falls for a former student and his shiftless adopted brother comes knocking on the door in search of a place to stay. Though Lawrence always relied on his intelligence to get him out of life's little jams in the past, it's going to take quite a bit more than intellectual thinking to move past this sticky stage in his suddenly chaotic life.
