On a shopping trip, The Grump smells Saimi, a woman who smells just right and drives him mad. Never would he have guessed that his chest could still feel like that of a young boy. The Grump has to admit he enjoys Saimi's company. Her words, her looks and her touch evoke feelings long forgotten. His sons are incredulous and even jealous of their father, unwilling to trust Saimi's sincerity... what if she's after their inheritance? Family discussions, misunderstandings, swimming in the moonlight and sleepless nights.

Yes, an arrow of love can pierce an older flannel shirt.
