Funny, yet its central theme is abandonment.
In this final episode of this memoir series, Tom, the lifetime bachelor, takes in his two young nephews to keep his sister's children in the family. The enormous challenges of this sudden and abrupt change, lead to life-altering changes. Will the cycle of abandonment be broken, or are we destined to be prisoners of our past?
In a test of wills, who will prevail to determine the long-term fate of the children? In a showdown of authority, lines are drawn into the sand. Will the kids unite the family or tear it apart? The ties that bind are put to the ultimate test resulting in unexpected and enduring results.
And with most dysfunctional families they come with a cost.Author's Note: "Imagine a 1970's version of Shameless but with less booze, more weed, and way more hallucinogenics."
