George Mariano - the stereotypical, down on his luck, kind of guy - finds himself at the end. With an impending eviction on the horizon, living in a crappy one room rental, and zero hope of ever climbing out of the cesspool that is his life... George has chosen to end it... with a bullet. But as the metaphorical hammer falls within his cheap hand gun, there comes not a bang of deadly bliss, but a bang at his front door. A stranger has come to coach George on his failed life - to give him hope where there is none - to help George get back in the game.
