A disagreement over a DNR order put Ed's sons, Steve and Peter, at odds and the family speculates that their anger is really about an event that led to their falling out when they were teens. While in his coma, Ed exists somewhere between life and death as he searches for answers to why Peter and Steve became estranged and what he could have done differently when Steve tried to tell him that he was gay. The family is drawn into the bitter battle between Peter and Steve, and they fear things will never be right between them again. It's now up to the family to devise an intervention as a last ditch effort to bring these two battling brothers back into the family.
