When Caroline, a  H.S. Junior with a promising future (likely  in prison), is offered one last chance  to avoid expulsion, her college-bound older sister, Cassidy helps her search for their absent-Mom. Unfortunately, the best they can find is Michael...their Mom’s very odd ex-lover living without power but with active B.O. Now, the three of them are forced to play "house" to keep Caroline in school, get Cassidy to college and kick Michael out of the house.
