About the title
Peter is about to become a father and is on the verge of a nervous breakdown. And it doesn't help his nerves that he has to make an entire journey — accompanied by an aspiring actor, no less — in order to get home in time for the birth of his own child. It's a moderately funny, moderately sad story about two completely opposite personalities who, by sheer chance, end up as reluctant traveling companions on the way to Los Angeles. Along the way they get into various bizarre situations and inevitably come out unscathed… well, at least one of them does. Together, they turn out to be a real nuclear bomb.
