Jeremy decides to help his Grandpa Vinny, who has foolishly bought a terribly run-down home for the elderly - all signs indicating they both are a way in over their heads. However, Mr Brown and Cora show up in their lives at the right time as needy investors and make way for ample comedy as they run the home with Vinny.

Cast
