Hank's father, Cotton, receives a startling letter from his old war-time flame, Tilly. Tilly lives in Japan, and Cotton is torn about whether or not to go visit her. Hank, confused about the whole ordeal and apprehensive about his father's trip, decides to come along to keep an eye on Cotton. Bobby is also keen to come, hoping to experience Japanese culture and cuisine. As soon as they arrive, they realize that Tilly is a changed woman. She and Cotton start discussing their past, and Hank realizes that his father may be more human than he ever thought. The culture shock of being in Japan starts to set in, and the family tries to adjust to the new surroundings. Meanwhile, Cotton's war-time buddies have set up a meeting with him, which is scheduled for the same day as his meeting with Tilly. The family decides to split up to cover both events, but Hank and Cotton's plans to reunite with old friends takes a surprising turn.
