J.P. Tannen (Jon Voigt) wants a second chance to be a father to his children...but someone else has taken his place. Determined not to just be a friendly ''uncle'' in their lives, he gets permission from his ex-wife Kathleen (Millie Perkins) and her new husband (Richard Crenna) to take the kids on a Mediterranean cruise.

But shortly after setting sail J.P. finds that reconnecting with his kids isn't going to be as easy as he had hoped: his youngest son has learning disabilities, his daughter harbors resentment and his eldest son is rebellious. Feeling overwhelmed, and reverting to his old irresponsible ways, J.P. is convinced that he's a failure as a father.

Then, a crushing, emotional tragedy back home forces J.P. to attempt to rise to the challenge of his children's needs to become the father he always hoped he could be.
