Plot: What's the story about?
Tapawingo follows a 30-year-old oddball (Nate), who works a dead-end mailroom job and still lives in his mom’s house. When Nate’s boss orders him to pick up his social misfit son from school— it becomes clear the kid is being bullied. Nate finally gets the opportunity to do what he’s always wanted: mercenary for hire. He forms a team of crack-shot wackadoos to protect the kid from the town’s family of bullies who seem to have taken an especially keen liking to his client.
