Win Win
In the game of life, you can't lose 'em all.
A struggling lawyer sees a way out when an elderly client asks for help. He double-crosses him and starts pocketing his monthly maintenance cheque. However things get complicated when the old man's grandson arrives, and needs a place to stay. He ends up staying with the lawyer, which serves both their needs since the lawyer coaches the school wrestling team, and the kid just happens to be an expert wrestler. (sigh). The new kid helps motivate the team and things start looking up all around, before an unexpected surprise arrives.
