Thaddeus and Sally have a joint-suicide plan. Unluckily for them, Thaddeus' granddaughter has her eyes on stopping it.

A couple of elderly lovers, Thaddeus and Sally, are fed up with the nursing home where they spend their days and run off for a weekend on the Irish west coast with the intention to end their lives there. Alice follows her grandfather's invitation to visit him there, unaware of his plans - until arrives in the post, with Thaddeus and Sally's names on it.
