Introduced to Twitter by his tech-savvy son Percy (Emjay Anthony), Carl accidentally starts a flame war and loses his job. Encouraged by his ex-wife Inez (Sofia Vergara) to start a Cuban food truck together with his son and his friend Martin (John Leguizamo), Carl takes to the road, hoping to reignite his creative genius.
