Tim and Lee are married with a young child. The chance to stay at a fancy home in the Hollywood Hills is complicated by Tim's discovery of a bone and a rusty old gun in the yard. Tim is excited by the idea of a mystery, but Lee doesn't want him to dig any further, preferring that he focus on the family taxes, which he promised to do weeks ago. This disagreement sends them on separate and unexpected adventures over the course of a weekend, as Tim and his friends seek clues to the mystery while Lee searches for answers to the bigger questions of marriage and parenthood.

Jake Johnson channels a frantic, lovable suburban delusion as he obsessively pursues a backyard mystery while his marriage quietly unravels. This dry comedy finds its heart in the friction between a man chasing ghosts and a woman trying to manage reality.
