Twenty-five years ago, top researcher William Howard took on a classified federal project. To the world, he was a convicted felon. In truth, he was the real controlling shareholder of Carmen Group, though even his wife Mary and son Arthur believed he was in prison. When the project ends, William just wants to go home. Learning Arthur is getting engaged that day, he secretly promotes his future daughter-in-law Chloe to acting VP of Carmen Tech. But the promotion goes to her head. At the engagement party, the Smiths humiliate William for his criminal record and demand more money. Arthur defends his father and calls off the engagement. Chloe has no idea the VP job she flaunts came from the very man she mocked, and William decides to take it back.
