It's a story that Ted Grayson has reported time and time again as a network TV anchor: the public downfall of those at the top. He just never imagined that it would happen to him. After a profanity-laced tirade is caught on camera, his career is destroyed. While viewers may have trusted Ted for decades, his family certainly didn't; Ted is estranged from his wife Claire and adult daughter Franny, a writer for a popular website. When Franny s boss suggests that she confront Ted in an interview, it may be the chance for Ted to take a hard look at how he got here, and to find his way back before it's too late.
