Businessman Chip Panoptic shows up at a former employee's home with a strange plan. After losing his job, his best friend, and moving from Detroit to California, Chip wants to help a group of antisocial apartment-dwellers rediscover their sense of community and the value of old-school friendship. The problem is that Chip himself has little experience in either category. This is a dramatic comedy about a man struggling to redeem himself by recapturing the spirit of his lost best friend.
