RE-INVENTING EDDIE
Eddie Harris is a "normal" dad who loves his life, his job and most of all his family. His philosophy is honesty and frankness. He agrees with his wife Jeanie that it's best to be open when answering their children's questions, no matter how embarrassing. This policy backfires when their daughter Katie stumbles in on them making love and then proceeds to regale her schoolmates with her inside knowledge of the carnal pleasures. Jeanie is called in to see the headmistress who is concerned by the level of Katie's information and by a picture the girl has drawn of Eddie dressed up as a "rough old granny" as part of a bath-time game. Eddie soon finds himself being investigated and, in an attempt to keep his family together, is forced to exile himself from the house until the matter is dealt with. While in exile, Eddie gets some misguided advice from his best friend Cliff and embarks on a quest to become a "normal" dad again.
