Nineteen ordinary people from a single neighborhood win a lottery super pot, $20,000,000 each. The initial ecstasy is soon tainted for many by practical and relational worries. Teacher Cameron Walsh now reconsiders his offer to his ex Nina to leave their spouses, made when he still had to move to get tenure. Nina refuses to replace Beth and stays with unsuspecting good house-father Peter Schaefer. Damien Cutler (17) is so eager to get rid of his domineering dad that he hastens emancipation by marrying a Russian mail order bride, which after sex may not be broken up as agreed. Flower shop clerk Sean Mathers needs to have his winnings cashed anonymously because of his criminal record. He makes love with a client, lawyer Zoe Reida, who still remains suspicious.

The Big C

4 Seasons
Cathy Jamison is a suburban Minneapolis high school teacher, wife and mother with less than a perfect life, despite it perhaps seeming so to much of the outside world. Her life is given a major shock when she is diagnosed with melanoma, the first news of such to her being when it is at advanced stage IV, meaning that she will most likely succumb to it within short order barring some extreme or radical intervention. Cathy goes through a myriad of emotions concerning the diagnosis, including how she will deal with it in relation to family, friends and people close to her in other ways. These people include: Paul Jamison, her college sweetheart husband, who is often just another big kid in their relationship, while Cathy has acted the responsible adult; Adam Jamison, Cathy and Paul's teenaged son who is going through typical issues of being a teenager and only child; Sean Tolkey, Cathy's hyper-environmental anti-establishment brother, who chooses to be homeless to live off the grid and who abhors what he sees as Cathy's bourgeois suburban lifestyle; her students, such as Andrea Jackson, who openly stands her ground on any issue, including her weight problem and her African-American background; and her elderly seemingly crotchety female long-time neighbor, who Cathy has not made the effort to know despite their close proximity for years.
