Tapawingo follows a 30-year-old oddball (Nate), who works a dead-end mailroom job and still lives in his mom's house. When Nate's boss orders him to pick up his social misfit son from school--it becomes clear the kid is being bullied. Nate finally gets the opportunity to do what he's always wanted: mercenary for hire. He forms a team of crack-shot wackadoos to protect the kid from the town's family of bullies who seem to have taken an especially keen liking to his client.
