Description:  Grifter card shark Bobby Kremsky decided early on in his life that he was not going to be a family man (that literally killed his father when he was fourteen). However at nineteen, Bobby did father a child, Renetta, who he never saw as he ran out on Renetta's mother, Colleen Moore, when she was pregnant. In order for Bobby to learn the meaning of 'unconditional love' especially for his daughter, Othniel sends Bobby back to the day of Colleen's funeral when Renetta was ten. She was about to be shipped off to Colleen's straight-laced sister and brother-in-law, Jane and Bill, with whom Colleen and Bobby never got along, and with whom Renetta would not be a good fit for their household. In his new role, Bobby impersonates an official from child protection services, a man who he calls Henry Jude. "Henry" is able to get Bobby and Renetta together, but bonding between the two will take longer as each is headstrong and stubborn. For time to bond, Othniel sends them on a road trip, a journey of discovery for both, but one not without obstacles.
