When Tom, a stoic Midwest husband and dad, loses his job at a car assembly plant, he makes an extraordinary decision: to support his family by pursuing his dream of becoming a professional bowler. As a skilled player, Tom understands that in bowling you always get another ball after the first one goes wrong—giving yourself a second chance. With love from his wife and unwavering support from Archie, his mentor at Archie's Lanes, home of the Curly Fry, he embarks on this new career with renewed determination. It remains to be seen if Tom will strike it big on the pro bowling circuit, but the pins are set and he’s taking his second shot.
Tom begins his new career with the loving okay from his wife, Jen.
