Jarod Houston (Greg McKeon) is down on his luck. He's lost his wife, his job, and his home. The one bright spot in his otherwise depressing life is his step-sister Grace, who offers Jarod refuge in the basement of her home. Unfortunately, the free rent comes at a price. Grace's son Ryker (Troye Jacobs), who is home from college for the summer, can't hide how disgusted he is by Jarod's existence. Though Ryker tries to be cordial, Jarod can't feel Ryker's contempt. How much can Jarod take until he finally snaps?
