A father sees his children and friends sitting outside their inner-city apartment sad because they have nothing to do. The dad wants to play basketball with his friends. But should he play basketball with his friends or do something to make the children happy? He decides trying to make the children happy is more important than playing basketball. So he packs up everyone in his minibus and starts off to the park.The sky gets dark, it starts to rain, lightning cracks across the sky, and the wind is blowing hard. The minibus gets a flat tire, and the children are sad again. Then he drives the minibus down a winding road with trees' branches hanging into the road, attacking the minibus. The children's friend Kim falls and gets a bruised knee. Everyone is hungry and thirsty.Dad and Mom pull out a gill, hot dogs, hamburgers, buns, chips, and drinks. But Fara cannot eat hot dogs because of her culture. For that, Dad has banana fritters just for her. Dad does whatever is needed to make sure the children have fun, and he feels good. He puts a smile on the children's faces, and they have quality family time. They ride back home singing, "That's my dad—he's a hero!"
