Life isn't fair. He's a townie and the girl who has her eyes on him lives in the summer mansion on the hill. His only connection to the world of caviar, fine wine and fancy cars is his grandfather who recently returned from worldly travels -- a long-lost relative who never had anything to do with bringing up his mom, a World War II circumstance. He seems to be handling everything OK until the investigative reporter turns out to be investigating his own grandfather as a World War II concentration camp official who decided which folks died and which went to work in the camps.
