For the first time ever, the refinery is allowed two floats in the Labour Day parade, activating a fierce competition to win best Imperial Valley float design. Will there be a winner, or will protesting environmental groups disrupt their celebrations?
In a blue-collar community where the high stress of working in a refinery is balanced by the comedic high-wire antics of its plant workers, The Trades centres around pipefitter Todd and his sister and roommate, Audrey, who follows in her big brother's footsteps pursuing a career in the trades as a carpenter, just like their father Rod.
