Ritchie Flynn Parker (Alessandro Nivola) is a successful, yet quiet man living in Los Angeles, California with his girlfriend (Amanda Peet). He has just been fired from his job as a health inspector when he hears his father, Nat, (Christopher Walken) a thrifty con-man has a brain tumor and that he is going to drive to New Mexico to seek a potential cure. He grudgingly goes to Atlantic City to see his father who then explains he has been living on five dollars a day, going comedically far distances to do so, such as constantly calling into various radio stations with different aliases to win free things. The father and son soon hit the road driving a Sweet'n Low car free of charge provided they get gas at Chevron stations LESS
