Serge A. Storms and his permanently baked sidekick, Coleman, have decided to pump the brakes and live on island time. After years of manic road-tripping across their beloved Sunshine State, the irrepressible anti-heroes drop anchor in the Florida Keys to study a unique slive of native culture. They settle down in Pelican Bay, a thriving condo complex with scenic views and friendly neighbors. But all is not perfect in paradise. In between board games and potluck dinners, the community is beset by an endless cast of scammers, scumbas, scofflaws, and inconsiderate renters who track fish juice down the halls. Naturally Serge takes it upon himself -- in his own signature ways -- to restore tranquility and he quickly becomes a local favorite.

Meanwhile, the island chain's long and rich smuggling heritage is causing mayhem. Gang friction heats up when a local drug lord passes the family business to his young, enterprising son, and the ideal lives of the sun-loving residents hang in the balance.

Luckily, Florida's most lovable serial killer is there to help.
