Gil and Ford shared a pivotal moment when they were kids living in tiny Leeward, California, on the northern coastal highway. Immediately afterward, Gil moved to the San Francisco Bay Area with his family so his mother could get better cancer care. Years later, Gil is back in Leeward, working as CFO at Mainsail Construction where Ford supervises the work teams. Gil has come home to take care of his father after the older man's stroke.
While Gil says he's a small town boy at heart and is glad to be back, Ford wonders if that's true or if he'll bail as soon as his dad is settled. Is Gil being honest with himself? If so, how does Ford fit into his new life?
