Fletcer, a tongue-in-cheek lawyer, is a winner in court but a loser in marriage. The ex-wife lives with their son Max, and the son's eyes glow every time he sees his father, but Fletcher fails to abide by the agreement with Max time and time again. On Max's birthday, Fletcher didn't show up as scheduled. In the world of a five-year-old boy, the image of his father is tall and majestic, and he is the object of his worship. Fletcher's repentance again and again makes Max wish: Fletcher can never lie again.

Fletcher's exaggerated expressions and body movements brought us a lot of laughs, and also let us see the hypocrisy of the adult world. Some lies are used to compliment others, and the pleasure is both parties. The development of the plot is intertwined. In the first half, the director tried his best to show the successful life of Fletcher in the world of lies, and the second half is the embarrassment of Fletcher returning from the world of lies to the real world.

Jerry and Fletcher are in stark contrast on the show. Jerry is the current boyfriend of Fletcher's ex-wife. He accompanies Max and plays games with him, but that unique claw cannot be imitated by Jerry. Max has only one father.

When Fletcher learned that Max was going to live in Boston, he made an appointment to go to the airport to see his son off at the airport. In contrast, let us better understand Fletcher's determination to be a good father. When Fletcher drove the luggage cart at the airport to chase the Max plane, he touched countless people at that moment. It was the love of a father. I cried because when I was a child, my father was the symbol of authority, the representative of majesty, but I also knew that my father loved me very much.

One year later, on Max's birthday, compared to the huge birthday party, funny circus, and many kindergarten children when he was five years old, this time it was only Max and his parents. Although it was simple, Max had a very sweet smile this time. After blowing out the candles, the night poured in, Fletcher and his ex-wife kissed, a big happy ending.

In the adult world, there are so many lies, whether well-intentioned or deliberate, that it seems to have become a necessity. But when dealing with a sincere emotion, no liar, no lie.
