Contemporary drama. Separated dad Eddie, tired of his brother Pete living life irresponsibly, makes an impulsive decision with far-reaching consequences.

After a particularly hurtful row and yet another of Pete's many failings, Eddie impulsively reports his brother for drink driving. To Eddie's dismay, the consequences for all the family are far-reaching. Pete is arrested and loses his licence and consequently his job.
