As it follows Paola in the remaking of the relationship with her father and re-adaptation to the Taiwanese culture, it grasps the struggle in their attempt to recover the lost time. But as days go by and the bond between them strengthens, Paola will find out the truth about the past, the deep loneliness that Jimmy experienced and the big disgrace brought to his Taiwanese family for not being able to take care of his wife and daughter.
