Michael's menial routine spirals out of control when he meets Cora, the girl of his dreams.

Single father George Altman is doing his best to raise his sixteen-year-old daughter Tessa in the big city. When he discovers a box of condoms in her bedroom, though, he decides the time has come to move her to a more wholesome and nurturing environment: the suburbs.

It’s a whole new world, one that makes George wonder if they haven’t jumped out of the frying pan and into the fire.
