They desperately want out, except for one little problem: neither Oliver nor Barbara is willing to leave empty-handed. Under those circumstances, the couple is bound for an unnecessary, yet explosive and utterly catastrophic, head-to-head collision, in a no-holds-barred civil war between the sexes with their lavish mansion as the precious spoils of war. Without a doubt, theirs is a sad story, however, is any marriage destined to succeed? After all, Barbara and Oliver's divorce lawyer is deeply skeptical.
