Premise

After years of living together, police officer Danny Confino comes home to discover his girlfriend is cheating on him. Shocked by the discovery, Danny decides to leave her and her young son, whom he loves and raises as his own. As a police salary won't allow him to rent his own apartment, Danny returns to his parents' house - temporarily. What starts out as a provisional arrangement soon becomes permanent as Danny discovers that life back at home surpasses any crime scene. Despite his unconventional and sometimes violent behavior, Danny is perceived as a "a man's man", a popular cop at the precinct he unofficially runs, but at home, with his exasperating parents and criminal brothers, he faces many more serious challenges. His hands tied, his authority limited, he slowly comes to find that his greedy and petty family are the real "criminals" and the main obstacles in his life.
