Thriller
Victor Gischler's STAY, in which a stay-at-home dad with a
secret past is forced to take pre-emptive action when his
family is threatened by a crime lord, with TV rights sold.
David Sparrow is an awesome stay-at-home dad. He gets his
kids ready for school while his wife, Amy, commutes to New
York City, where she is an Assistant District Attorney. She
just inherited a major case: prosecuting crime lord Dante
Payne. Meanwhile, David is content chatting with the moms at
school drop-off, and doing housework. One night, David is awoken by a sound downstairs, and
discovers a man in Amy's office, going through her work
documents. Instinctively, David confronts the man and a
fight begins. But not a fight between a stay-at-home dad and
a common burglar. No, this is a fight out of a Bourne movie
and it is intense. David wins, but barely. He tries to
explain to the cops that this guy was no ordinary burglar
but they mostly ignore him, especially when they find out
what he does for a "living." We now discover that David is a former Solo Ops officer, a
soldier who was routinely dropped in war zones with a
specific mission. If he was caught, the US government would
disavow all knowledge of him. David was honorably discharged
after too many missions and was excited for a quiet, normal
life. However, with Dante Payne now targeting Amy and her family,
David decides to reactivate himself and take the fight to
the vicious criminal lord. And Dante Payne has no idea who
he's just crossed.
