Teenage daughter Emily (Olesya Rulin) finally has enough of the neglect when everyone blows off her big jump-roping competition at school. She rounds up her selfish, scattered relations for a long and tortured intervention — which includes tying mom and dad (Matthew Modine) to chairs, duct-taping their mouths shut and detailing their years of offenses.
