A loudmouthed woman-child and her disapproving father engage in an epic battle of wills in this unhinged family comedy starring Lisa Ann Walter and Kurtwood Smith. Dee Dee Rutherford (Walter) may be a full grown woman, thought her abrasive personality has made her the bane of her father Bill's existence for as far back as either can remember. For the past fifteen years, the contentious father and daughter have lived like oil and water. But now, on the eve of Bill's retirement, he vows to transform his brash, undisciplined daughter into an upstanding woman. Sometimes it takes a little pressure to get a diamond out of coal, and when Bill starts to lay down the law he quickly discovers his daughter is capable of far more than he ever gave her credit for.
