Wayne and Dahlia Malloy, along with the kids, are Irish con artists and thieves -- Travellers as they're called. After getting into an altercation with another family of Travellers, the Malloys are involved in a car crash. That crash kills wealthy couple Doug and Cherien Rich. Hoping to live a better life, the Malloys adopt the Riches' identities and move into their affluent Baton Rouge, La., community. But they now face the challenge of not having their deception exposed by people from their past or people from the Riches' past.
