'Good ol’ boy' Randy Pearson can’t seem to help getting in over his head with his various businesses. His latest scheme to keep his businesses afloat goes awry when a long-standing debt becomes due to a couple of low level Italian mobsters. And the IRS wants to talk to Randy too! Randy’s forced to swing into action, but his only hope is a helping hand from his carpal-tunneled, baton-teaching wife, Charlotte; his estranged, gay twin brother, Cecil, and Tino Armani, a mysterious modern day prophet with a knack for high fashion, Italian cooking and clogging. They serve as a powerful reminder of the strength of Southern roots, where love and family can usually be counted on to trump all adversities.
