When Beth's grandfather and Frank's father, Daddy Mac, dies suddenly, Frank agrees to drive Beth back to South Carolina for the funeral. Wally joins them on the trip despite Frank's initial reluctance. Along the way, Frank struggles with memories of his teenage years and a sexual relationship he had with another boy named Samuel, which led to his father cutting him out of his inheritance and exposing his homosexuality to the family.
