Plot

Billy Ford is a solitary widower whose tranquil life is passed in a secluded cabin by a picturesque pond. Billy’s calm routine is suddenly and dramatically interrupted one night when a young man named Nick Wolfe barges into his home wielding a gun and demanding that Billy hide him from the police.

Nick needs a place to lie low after committing armed robbery. He also has to do something about the gunshot wound he sustained while carrying out the crime. Despite his blustering manner, it soon becomes clear that Nick is no hardened felon. Billy tends to his captor’s injury and, as Nick convalesces, the two carry on conversations that become increasingly personal and revelatory.

Nick’s wife, Jean Wolfe, is pregnant. She thinks he’ll be a great dad but, never having known his own father, Nick himself has his doubts. Having hired a private investigator to locate his dad, Nick was driven to larceny to pay the man. Billy becomes a paternal figure to Nick, patiently imparting nuggets of wisdom and calling him son.
