Nobody notices a kid around here. At least that’s what Louie thinks when he goes in search of a father. He walks through his neighbourhood looking at all the people, but he can’t find anyone who looks right for the job. Then he meets Barney. Barney and Louie don’t exactly hit it off - Barney accuses Louie of stealing a music box from his truck. But Louie says he didn’t do it. Can Louie’s mother settle the conflict and reveal a kinder, gentler side of Barney? If she can, Barney may change Louie’s life in a most unexpected way.
