    Storyline

    Edit
    Ken Wall is quietly miserable in his life. He hates his job in marketing for a small brewery and especially hates his boss, Richard. Ken and his wife Lori have just had their first child, a still-unnamed son. Lori has postpartum depression in addition to having some new-mom physical issues, but is still doing all the proverbial lifting in parenting as Ken has not taken to the father role. Amid this turmoil, Ken reluctantly heads back to his hometown, Winnipeg, Manitoba upon the news that his father Andy, from whom he's been estranged ever since his parents' divorce, has died from an aneurysm. Ken plans to get in and out of Winnipeg as soon as possible, but while there he meets two others in Andy's regular golf foursome: Vince Kendall and Jeff Steadman; Vince is the lawyer handling Andy's will, and Jeff is the executor of his will. Ken learns that he gets the entire undisclosed amount of Andy's estate and then learns that the amount is sizable. Lori wants the money as a trust fund for their son, while Ken eyes at least part of it to start his dream business of a gastropub or brewpub. In order to inherit anything, Ken must scatter his father's cremated remains onto the field of the major-league football stadium Investor's Field in two days. He isn't able to do so officially, so with Jeff largely by his side, he must find a way to honor his father's last wishes. In the process, Ken might take a different view of his own life in learning more about his father, reconnecting with his college buddy and fellow brand-new father Cam, and discovering the true reason for Andy's wish. —Huggo

    • Quotes

      [Jeff has taken Ken to the strip club where he and Ken's father Andy always frequented]

      Cindee: [looking at Ken] It's like a little Andy. I mean, not what Andy calls his "Little Andy", but... Wow!

      Velvet: It's his kid.

      Cindee: Ahh! Hey, I can do a father/son discount. Where is he, the rascal?

      Jeff Steadman: He, he's gone, honey.

      [Cindee has a confused/blank smile on her face]

      Jeff Steadman: He's dead.

      Velvet: What?

      Cindee: Well, that's poopy.

    My husband and myself enjoyed every minute of this. The writing was brilliant. Each actor played their character to perfect. It was low key and natural, not over the top humour. Each gestor, and line, was subtle and hilarious. Love love loved it <3.
