The series follows Nate Parker, Jr. (
Jason Jones), his wife Robin Randall (
Natalie Zea), and their kids, preteen twins Delilah (
Ashley Gerasimovich) and Jared (Liam Carroll), as they drive from their home in
Syracuse, New York, to
Florida for a family vacation. The trip experiences several dramatic delays such as car trouble, run-ins with law enforcement, unforeseen medical mishaps, and intervening locals. Nate had caused some professional trouble before leaving Syracuse and has ulterior motives for the Florida trip, which fuels
flashbacks and a
framing device involving several law-enforcement agencies and an interrogation into his unspecified crimes. In season 2, the family settles in
New York City as Nate finds a new career but more trouble as pieces of Robin's past resurface, including her relationship with her father, wanted felon J.R. Randall (
James Cromwell). The framing device presents the couple being interrogated by the
United States Postal Inspection Service as an attempt to get at J.R., led by the overzealous (and very pregnant) Agent Edie (
Laura Benanti). In season 3, the family flees to Alaska. This time the framing device involves Nate and Robin discussing their case with their lawyer, Joe Delicious (
Max Casella). Jared becomes mayor of the town they settle in, Nate works on a fishing boat, and Robin becomes a stripper. In season 4, Delilah flees the rest of the Parkers as they try to track her down. This takes them to Tibet, Japan, New Zealand, and eventually back home to New York where she has apparently been the entire time. The season, and the series, ends with Nate apparently having gone off the grid, as he checks months of voice mail messages left for him. He then climbs into a van, which is immediately riddled with bullets and explodes; since the series was canceled shortly after the episode aired, Nate's fate is left unknown. == Cast ==
