He meets a misfit family, Lulu, Reggie, Aunt Agatha, and Mr. Pettigrew, each with their unique quirks. The film captures the Wes Anderson-esque funeral scene, where the eccentric characters express condolences in peculiar ways. Oliver's family history leads him to the town's long-forgotten nuthouse, unraveling a web of family drama, town secrets, and absurdities.

The film skillfully navigates the chaos, transforming the once-nuthouse into a backdrop for laughter and tears. The film encapsulates the enduring spirit of Maplewood, highlighting the resilience and survival of its inhabitants. "No one spoke at the funeral. Ain't it funny how I used to be in the nuthouse, and now I'm in jail. It was an enchanting old ruin, but I managed to never see it again, and I didn't get hurt that badly. Let's go and get a drink and smoke a cigarette. This is an adventure for our survival. See you tomorrow!"
