He's married to Jillian (KaDEE STRICKLAND), but is secretly having an affair with Andrea (SANNA LATHAN), his snooty subordinate who's married to Chris (ROCKMOND DUNBAR), a worker at one of William's construction sites. His best friend and fellow coworker is Ben (TYLER PERRY) who's married to Pam and is satisfied with his comfortable, but far from rich lifestyle. Chris repeatedly tries to convince him that they should ask William to invest in their business idea for their own construction firm, but the executive has bigger fish to fry in the form of Abby Dexter (ROBIN GIVENS).
She's just been hired by Charlotte as her company's new COO, a development that doesn't sit well with William. Nevertheless, Charlotte finally convinces Alice to join her on a cross-country road trip to see the sights and live a bit. As they make their way on that journey, the actions of their adult children come to a head and affect all of the family members.
Violence consists of the hitting of others (a man backhanding his adulterous wife over a counter, and later punching her lover in the face), while an overdose-based suicide takes place off-camera. Various characters have varying degrees of bad attitudes, while all sorts of tense family material also occurs.
Drinking is present in various scenes (with a few characters appearing somewhat intoxicated), while thematic material (including talk and signs of early onset Alzheimer's) is also present.
