Storyline
| Plot Summary |
Workaholic and sleazy businessman Sam is extremely reluctant to leave New York and go to his father's funeral. When he finally arrives, it becomes apparent that his mother and girlfriend are disappointed in him for "running away" whenever times get too emotional. Soon afterwards, he discovers that his father was sleeping around with another woman, and that Sam actually has a half-sister whom he never knew existed. His father has willed her $150,000 and has left Sam with the task of getting it to her. Frankie is a bartender also wrapped up in work just like her half-brother, and she has had a bad past and has now been left with the job of being a single parent to her troublemaker son, Josh. Josh is eleven years old but curses like a sailor and constantly makes fart jokes and sex jokes, making him popular with the bad kid crowd at school, although behind the act, Josh is depressed and lonely. Now Sam has to find a way to fix the past and reunite his mom, nephew and half-sister together at last, but it won't be easy. Written by GasmaskProductionsBooks |

Did You Know?
| Trivia | When sitting down with Michelle Pfeiffer to discuss the character of Lillian, Alex Kurtzman decided on a more naturalistic, slightly disheveled look for the role. As he described it: "this woman probably hasn't put on make-up in a year. She's been sitting by her dying husband's side and when we first meet her in the movie, that's where she's at. If we're too glamorous in this portrayal, it'll ring totally false." Pfeiffer agreed wholeheartedly and altered her otherwise glamorous image to play the grieving widow. See more » |

| Quotes |
Sam:
Six rules. And listen up, because I don't know if I'm gonna be able to tell you this again, okay? These are from my father. Number one. lf you like something because you think other people are gonna like it, it's a sure bet no one will. Number two. Most doors in the world are closed, so if you find one that you want to get into, you damn well better have an interesting knock. And if you knock like you drum, you'll be fine. Number three. Everything that you think is important, isn't. And everything that you think is unimportant is. Number four. Don't shit where you eat. Josh: I wasn't planning on it. Sam: He meant that metaphorically, of course. Now, bear in mind my father was not all that successful. Number five. Lean into it. Josh: What does that mean? Sam: It means that the outcome doesn't matter. What matters is that you're there for it. Whatever "it" is, good or bad. Kind of like right now. And finally, number six, a personal favorite. Never sleep with someone who has more problems than you. Frankie: [pops from around the corner] Hey! [chuckles] Sam: And my very own. Always assume your mother's listening. Frankie: That is definitely a rule. Your mom is always listening. See more » |
