The focus is on the housewife Dorothy “Dot” Lyon (Temple), who leads a completely normal family life in the American Midwest.

By his side is his loyal but ailing son Gator, played by Stranger Things rising star Joe Keery. He really wants to prove himself to his strict father. But Roy thinks he’s useless and hires the shady nose Ole Munch (Sam Spruell) to hunt Dot. While Dot tries to shield her family from their problems, her naïve husband Wayne (David Rysdahl) keeps running to his mother for help
She is one Lorraine Lyon, played by Jennifer Jason Leigh (Atypical). As CEO of the country’s largest debt collection agency, she mightn’t be more disappointed with her son’s choice of wife. And she makes no secret of her contempt for Dot. But when things get tight for Dot, Lorraine, despite all her antipathies, hires her henchman Danish Graves (Dave Foley) to help her daughter-in-law out of trouble
When Roy and Ole are joined by Minnesota Police Deputy Indira Olmstead (Richa Moorjani, Never Have I Ever) and North Dakota Deputy Witt Farr (Lamorne Morris, New Girl) on Dot, things get worse and worse for the hunted. But a lion mother like Dot Lyon shouldn’t be pushed into a corner.
