PLOT
Driving home with her kids on Christmas Eve, Holly Burns is startled to see her son Ben standing in the driveway. Ben has been in rehab for the past few months and is not supposed to be released yet. Ben tells them his sponsor said a trip home would be good for him. Though wary, Holly is happy to see him and says he can stay for 24 hours on the condition he does not leave her sight.
Holly takes Ben out to do some holiday shopping and get him clothes for church. While at the mall Holly runs into Ben’s former doctor, now an old man riddled with dementia. When his caregiver walks away Holly yells at him for getting her son hooked on painkillers after a skateboarding accident when he was younger. Ben also makes eye contact with someone who clearly recognizes him, leaving Ben looking worried. He tells Holly he needs to get to a meeting immediately.
At the addicts’ meeting Ben shares the story of how he almost overdosed but his mom and dog saved him
