Karen and Phil did everything according to plan. They met young, married, bought a house and had a family. Life was all planned out, until their youngest left for college and suddenly they found themselves alone with nowhere to turn. Without realizing, Phil and Karen spent the last 35 years growing apart and using their children as barricades - driving an even bigger gap in their already fragile marriage. Phil, an avid sport enthusiast with a love for beer and red meat, enjoys weekends on the couch and quality time alone in his garage. Karen, a shy, timid, stay-at-home wife with a love for renovating, enjoys shopping, sewing and painting. With absolutely nothing in common, these two are forced to reconnect again on all levels. Will Phil be able to reach Karen on an emotional level? Will Karen give in and allow Phil his guilty pleasures? Something needs to change fast, before someone checks out for good.
