At odds with his family, friends, and himself, Gene Maxwell has spent the past year living under a rock, drifting from one meaningless day job to the next, toiling away by night on a voluminous novel with which he hopes to win back the heart of his former fiancée, globe-hopping B-movie actress Liz Woodward. Then, out of the blue, Liz arrives on his doorstep, telling Gene she’s off to Prague to star in a low-budget action flick. Liz asks Gene to help move her father, Malcolm, out of his dingy basement suite into a sunny new apartment. Gene, seizing the opportunity to recapture Liz’s elusive love, agrees to move Malcolm, despite the protests of his embarrassingly eccentric, yet loving family, and his lady-killer best friend, ballroom dancing instructor Herbert.
