A Red Plaid Shirt
by Michael G. Wilmot
directed by Carolyn Walsh and Barb O’Dell
Synopsis
Two friends fill the void left by retirement in different ways; Marty decides he wants to explore the open road on a Harley while Fred decides to pay more attention to his health, inventing many new ailments along the way. With a little “subtle redirection” from their wives and a creative solution to a very unusual problem (which may or may not include a homemade coffin) they find the right track… eventually.
