Spike is a flawed, stuck in the past, hard-living father. During the film, he suffers a massive stroke, forcing him to relearn basic tasks, including walking and everyday routines. A longtime smoker and drinker, he dismisses his wife Laura’s concerns, insisting his four-beer-a-day habit is normal. Despite this, underneath it all he genuinely wants to be present for Jenny and her younger brother Ripley.
Laura is a sharp, emotionally worn woman who has spent years trying to hold together a life that keeps slipping through her fingers. Once rebellious and full of fire, traces of that version of herself still show in how she presents and carries herself, but are now dulled by resentment and disappointment. A smoker and drinker like her husband, she criticizes Spike’s habits while remaining stuck in the same patterns, fueling a volatile and co-dependent relationship.
