John Peterson, living in Southern California with his partner Eric and their adopted daughter, receives an unwelcome visit from his aging father Willis who is searching for a place to retire. The two men have very different worlds and personalities, leading to significant conflict. Willis' bigoted views clash with John's progressive lifestyle, exacerbated by Willis' advancing dementia. As Willis becomes increasingly difficult to handle, John struggles to balance his responsibilities as a son with the needs of his own family.
