Eighteen years ago, Mike's father John (Grant Mitchell) killed his brother's murderer and went to prison.

There he finds a job at the town bank, and fellow teller Emily (Lucille Powers) starts to take a shine to him. But Mike's father complicates things by getting an early parole while Emily's ex-boyfriend (Dwight Frye) starts to stir things up.
