Fiction Family Life
Meet Pat Peoples. Pat has a theory: his life is a movie produced by God. And his God-given mission is to become physically fit and emotionally literate, whereupon God will ensure him a happy endingβthe return of his estranged wife, Nikki. (It might not come as a surprise to learn that Pat has spent several years in a mental health facility.) The problem is, Patβs now home, and everything feels off. No one will talk to him about Nikki; his beloved Philadelphia Eagles keep losing; heβs being pursued by the deeply odd Tiffany; his new therapist seems to recommend adultery as a form of therapy. Plus, heβs being haunted by Kenny G!
