Widow of famed bounty hunter Ralph "Papa" Thorson, Dottie Thorson (Annette O'Toole) keeps the business from failing necessity with the assistance of her daughter, Brandi (Jordana Spiro), and her old and increasingly dear friend, Tiny Bellows (James Remar). The process of tracking down deadbeats -- not to mention using an array of scams to lure them in -- is natural for spunky young adult Brandi, but it's a tougher fit for mom Dottie.
