After an impulsive, regrettable affair with his pretty young assistant, guilt-ridden family man Walter Pearce confesses his indiscretion to his wife of twenty-four years. She promptly kicks him out of the house and cleans out their joint bank account in the process. A penniless, remorseful Walter is taken in by his next door neighbour Skylar, the arrogant start quarterback of the local high school football team. Skylar has just sustained a career-ending knee injury and is also feeling extremely sorry for himself. Their dreams abruptly dashed, the two men form an odd couple alliance as they attempt to get their lives back on track.
