A cynical therapist in his mid-thirties, moves his family to a new town, and gets in over his head with clients that will stop at nothing to get their way, financially or emotionally.
SYNOPSIS:
In the pilot, Dave Barrett is introduced as a licensed massage therapist in his mid-thirties that moves his family to a small upstate New York town to pursue a better life. Although he loves what he does, lately he has become disenchanted by how the business has become overrun with illegal practices which are slowly destroying his livelihood. Dave’s cynicism is paired with a straight forward biting wit which sets him apart from the average massage therapist. Dave learns very quickly that small town living is not all it’s cracked up to be. Early on he meets a client that has ulterior motives for befriending him. Soon, he finds himself in the middle of a kidnapping investigation. Before he knows it, Dave is unwittingly thrown into a world where greed reigns supreme and the people involved will stop at nothing to get their way, whether it be financially or emotionally. Ultimately, Dave learns a valuable lesson, “Be careful what you wish for.” Unfortunately for Dave, he might learn that lesson too late
