Summaries

A New Englander and his odd family run a hotel in Vienna, as unexpected events change their lives forever.

Mr. Win Berry Berry tries to run rural small-town Dairy's high-school and his sassy family. The troubles of his sons--Frank, a gay bullied by team-idolized football captain Chip Dove, horny athlete John, and 'Egg', so called after his growth-stopping syndrome--and daughters inspire him to try running a hotel instead. After more problems, they accept a shady offer to run a Viennese hotel--which proves to be a run-down rat-hole and terrorist layer, where disaster lays in waiting. Offspring talents also open positive avenues, which also prove to be mixed blessings.—KGF Vissers
