Ben (David Mumeni) and his wife Cammie (Susannah Fielding) are a high-value high-spend couple, but Ben is worried that he won’t be making bonus this month. When he decides to short-change all the service workers and staff who help maintain his comfortable lifestyle, his kids (played by newcomers Henry and Laila Newton) are the ones who suffer. Will Ben listen to his son’s warnings of the man without a face?
