Plot

After ten years, Sheldon returns from New York City to Paris, Georgia. His mother is Evelyn, a laundress who is stubborn, ornery, opinionated, mean-spirited, insulting, and inflexible. Evelyn sends a ten-year-old boy claiming to be Sheldon's son to see Sheldon. Sheldon comes home to resolve the matter. Old arguments reignite between himself, his mother, his sister, and his brother.

Sheldon disputes that the boy is his son. He does not want to be a part of fatherhood or family. Then, a white man from New York arrives at Evelyn's door, claiming to be Sheldon's partner

gollark: Oh.
gollark: Isn't there the VA system? Which is kind of sort of that for some people.
gollark: I see. I don't actually know anything about Sri Lanka except a vague impression that it's in Africa.
gollark: It would not then be fair to assume that differences are down to some inherent badness of Sri Lanka, but that doesn't make comparisons invalid.
