Storyline

Nineteen ordinary people from a single neighborhood win a lottery super pot, $20,000,000 each. The initial ecstasy is soon tainted for many by practical and relational worries. Teacher Cameron Walsh now reconsiders his offer to his ex Nina to leave their spouses, made when he still had to move to get tenure. Nina refuses to replace Beth and stays with unsuspecting good house-father Peter Schaefer. Damien Cutler (17) is so eager to get rid of his domineering dad that he hastens emancipation by marrying a Russian mail order bride, which after sex may not be broken up as agreed. Flower shop clerk Sean Mathers needs to have his winnings cashed anonymously because of his criminal record. He makes love with a client, lawyer Zoe Reida, who still remains suspicious.
