The story

Chicago police officer Danny Muldoon is a lonely 38-year-old bachelor living with his overbearing mother, Rose. Since his father's death, Danny has carried the responsibility for his family, putting his brother Patrick through law school and caring for Rose, often imagining terrible things happening to her if he is not around to protect her. Patrick, now married with children, repeatedly urges Danny to stay single and move with Rose to Florida, while their neighbor Nick Acropolis persistently tries to court Rose himself.
