When Alan Hook's father, Brian, has a bout of illness, the two are brought together after many years of growing further apart. Unfortunately for Alan, he finds his well-intentioned father to be even more annoying now than he did when he was a teenager; and Vincent, Alan's son, finds himself just as distanced from Alan as Alan does from Brian.
