The Reel’Em Inn was the finest little fishing lodge in the Ozarks. But business is down and the lone guest is only there due to a location shift in the Witness Protection Program. Doesn’t anybody just want to fish anymore? The proprietor’s wife has taken drastic steps to improve their love life through hypnotic suggestion. Bring in a diverse and slightly twisted parade of characters and you get a deliciously funny romp as everyone hides, lies, cross-dresses, and slams the doors in their efforts to evade the others.
