Alexander Allen is a respected police chief, a 38-year-old man who lives by rules and order. His life is turned upside down when he becomes the temporary guardian, or is forced to supervise, the son of an old friend: a tattooed, provocative 21-year-old who lives on the fringes of the law.
The kid is pure chaos, and he makes a point of challenging the older man's authority every second he's in the house, until the limits of discipline snap, and the man of the law decides to use his own hands to teach the rebel who really makes the rules.
