Once Stanley Phillipsalso had a foreseeable life and a promising future. His dream since he was a child is to devote himself to a patriotic career. Of course, the best way is to serve in the army. But his poor eyesight disrupted all plans. Phillips, who was rejected by the conscription, had to work as a waiter in a grocery store. Fortunately, his wife is a soldier, which also comforted his unfulfilled dream to a certain extent. With the outbreak of the Iraq War, his wife went on an expedition to the other side of the ocean with the army, leaving Phillips at home to look after his two daughters.
Phillips, who was in a mess at work, was also unsuccessful in life. After his wife left, he found that taking care of two daughters who were only 12 and 8 years old was also quite a headache. In particular, Phillips does not know how to enter the role of a caring father. And the following bad news made the life that had been stumbling even more with a new crisis-his wife died for the country on the battlefield. When the uniformed officer appeared at the door of the house and told him all this solemnly, life seemed to fall into a bottomless abyss in an instant. And immediately, the grief of losing his lover was replaced by restless anxiety-how should he tell his two underage daughters this unfortunate news.

In the end, he decided not to tell his daughters the news, and took them out to play and relax, leaving all these worries behind. At the suggestion of the youngest daughter, they came to the obsessive theme park, where the three of them had a very happy and intimate time. In the laughter, it seemed that everything was really so beautiful, and Phillips gradually began to understand the way of being a father. However, what should come will come after all. The death of his mother has become a fact. No matter how reluctant, the daughters still need to know the news
