Jim goes all the way to Afghanistan to get away from his parents. While he and Steve find themselves under fire, Billy finds himself stranded alone with their mothers.
Jim is an edgy, foul-mouthed stand-up comedian from Australia, in his mid-30s and living in LA, endeavoring to make his life and career more "legit", only to find it a difficult, uncomfortable uphill struggle every step of the way.
Jim is encouraged in his quest by Steve, his neurotic best friend and roommate, a cyber-law library salesman who struggles to stay on his feet in the wake of a divorce, and Steve's brother Billy, who suffers from advanced staged Muscular Dystrophy and is confined to a wheelchair.
