## Synopsis (in-house rewrite)

A reluctant telekinetic dad decides booze and bad decisions are easier than responsibility. After a near-death experience Melvin finally flexes his powers, teaming with his loyal if skeptical sidekick Lucille to tame a mean New Orleans street. So much for zero effort—parenthood—and heroism—actually require both.
