While he tries to re-establish a relationship with his estranged daughter Karen, a twist of fortunes lands Daly at Hope Center where he begins working with young addicts. Along the way, his beliefs are rattled when he learns many of the boys he works with aren't bad by choice, but are victims of their environments.
