79-year-old Darlene Viriglio, an outspoken icon in Hamilton, Texas, befriends her 39-year-old neighbor Alex Patterson, a newcomer from the big city who seemingly doesn't belong in their sleepy little town. Alex confides in Darlene that he left California because his musical career is over, life has passed him by, and he wishes for a do-over. Darlene refuses to accept his flimsy justification and calls his do-over idea nonsense.
Spurred by their discussions, Darlene pens an insightful article questioning Alex's notion of a do-over as well as the traditional belief that when you die you go straight to Heaven. The article sparks national attention in Darlene. While she shares her wisdom and insight in several additional articles, she never stops asking for the real reason why Alex moved to Hamilton
