Unloved medical-school dropout Victor Mancini (Sam Rockwell; Charlie's Angels, The Assassination of Jesse James) works at a Colonial-Williamsburg-themed park by day and trawls sex-addiction groups looking for action by night. Suffering under the financial strain of looking after his Alzheimer's-afflicted mother Ida (Anjelica Huston; Darjeeling Limited) he devises an ingenious, yet complicated scam; heading to upscale restaurants Victor pretends to choke on his food, safe in the knowledge that one of the wealthy patrons will come to his rescue. Once 'saved' Victor appeals to his saviour for financial aid.
