Comedy begins with a botched suicide and ends with a barn burning. Claudie O'Brien has driven to her favorite spot on the Metolius River in Central Oregon. She is armed with some very nice Champagne and a boatload of Percocet. But her best laid plans of checking out are thwarted by Peter, a laid off vice-principal working as a tow-truck driver. She comes to live in the converted garage that Peter's wife Chrystal has renovated. This doesn't please Mrs. Fowler, the noisy neighbor across the street who has problems of her own in the form of her meth-cooking son Marty. Chrystal is soon distracted by the handsome older spiritual guru who has breezed into town with plans to build a "transformational" retreat in the woods. He endeavors to help Chrystal clear her seven chakras in his luxurious suite at the Six Firs Resort. One person in town knows that he is a fraud... and she's living in Chrystal's converted garage. How will Claudie reconcile herself to her new life, straighten out the mess in Chrystal and Peter's life, and bring about the comeuppance to the husband who walked out on her 40 years ago?
