The last thing Eddie Mills wants to do is go home to deal with his family and his dying Dad.In Chicago, Eddie is a single, middle-aged doorman at the Peninsula Hotel. He’s content to live hand to mouth, and stare into his beer and ponder where he went wrong. But back in Bel Air MD, he knows there are plenty of reminders that his life did not turn out as expected.The Catholic guilt gnaws at him. Eddie returns to his childhood home with its crazy cast of familial characters. A weepy overweight sister, a bipolar brother in law, two endlessly judging, religiously conservative brothers.To top it off, a passive aggressive stepmother, Dawn, in total denial that her husband is passing.

As time runs out for his Dad, Eddie boozes it up with his old high school buddies.Just as his father is passing, Eddie finds out he's the dad of a 7 year old, with Susan Deever, his ex. His world upside down, and he has to come terms with his past and his future — immediately.
