Aloysius T. McKeever, an ultra-friendly homeless man, moves into the mansion of Michael O’Connor as he does every winter when the tycoon vacates the house for the season. However, this year, McKeever begins inviting other homeless people to stay with him in the mansion. Unbeknownst to all, O’Connor’s daughter, Trudy, is one of the inhabitants. When her wealthy father comes looking for her, she convinces him to play along with the ruse so that he can meet the man that she loves, ex-G.I. Jim Bullock. However, when O’Connor’s business interests come into conflict with the squatters’ interests, will O’Connor continue to help the people who call him friend, or will he follow the almighty dollar?
