Ted decides to give Casey, his bride-to-be, a surprise wedding gift - a reunion with her long-lost father, Leo. Ted doesn't realize, however, that his bride cannot tolerate her father. Ted doesn't really understand this attitude because Leo is nothing like his own father, George, a quiet bookstore owner. Leo, a small-time hoodlum and part-time magician, can't go back to Las Vegas because he kept the last payoff he collected. Soon enough, a hit man arrives at George's home to collect the money. Leo's this close to getting whacked until George intervenes. The mob's on hold for now, but that's the least of George's problems because, on his way to the ferry, Leo happens to notice the spare room above George's bookstore. . . .
