Arnie Kotkin has finally gotten his doctorate in science, but his dream of teaching at the college level eludes him when a private prep school in Vermont makes a far better offer. To add to the changes in his life, his parents have announced that they can no longer care for Todd--the child of his late brother--so he and his partner, Barnaby Moss, are tapped for the honor of raising the boy.
