Set in a mid-south suburb, Jayden, an observant 8-year-old, is obsessed with the Wirbly, a fuzzy animatronic present she was promised on her birthday. Her grandfather, Reggie, a former military veteran, has been her involuntary father figure while her dad, Daniel, is out of work and unmotivated. But, to Reggie's surprise, Daniel is looking sharp the day after he missed Jayden's birthday party. Full of confidence he promises to get Jayden the coveted Wirbly. He might not have the money but Daniel does have a plan. During their quest, Jayden begins to observe who her dad is and how he moves in her developing world as he meets shades of his past, future employment hopes, and familiar foes. As his daughter watches him go to great lengths to try and get her what she wants she also observes how others treat her misfit dad as he struggles to get back on his feet after a recent run-in with the cops. Just as Daniel's luck begins to turn Jayden decides to take a risk to get what she wants and make her dad proud. But does it?
