Frank (Jim Gaffigan) has been married to his wife (Anna Gunn) for 18 years. He has also been married to his other wife (Samantha Mathis) for 18 years. He has been able to live this double life until his son Phillip (Logan Miller) accidentally sees him with his other family when he is supposed to be in Japan on a business trip. This sets off a chain of events both humorous and sad that can't possibly have a happy ending.

This movie is actually pretty funny. You might even end up feeling sorry for sad sack cheater Frank. But, in the end, he gets what he probably deserves. Logan Miller is cute as his son who is all too happy to exploit what he knows to hold his Dad's feet to the fire. But, being his accomplice is hard work. The film is entertaining if somewhat predicatable. Maybe worth a watch on PPV when you just want to binge on ice cream and have a laugh.
