But even with the help of Martha (Martha Kelly) and a life coach, he learns leaving the nest is hard, to say the least. Christine (Louie Anderson) and Ken (Alex Morris) move into a new place they can call their own, but carpet emergencies and missing kitchen magnets make the transition rockier than expected. And Dale (also played by Galifianakis) has found kindred spirits with his fellow inhabitants at the RV Park.

It’s summer of 1984 and crack cocaine is spreading like wildfire through Los Angeles, continuing its path of destruction and changing the culture forever. Police are waking up to its growing epidemic and Sergeant Andre Wright (Marcus Henderson) has set his sights on budding Kingpin and next door neighbour Franklin Saint (Damson Idris) and his people. While local law enforcement fights to stem the tide, Teddy McDonald (Carter Hudson) and the CIA are working hard to make sure the flow of cocaine into LA doesn’t stop. As the stakes and losses continue to mount, all are forced to reflect on their own motivations and the destructive force they have set in motion.
