His parents want him to settle down with a career and a wife. The Hurleys offer him the opportunity to come to California for a look-see on the possibility to live out there if he likes it.

Tom stays neutral until events finally lead to the disintegration of the Hurley marriage. Tom must make a decision that will change his life.
