SYNOPSIS:
Wannabe activist Abby Sessler has chained herself to an Oak Tree due to be removed the next morning in order to make room for a new parking garage. Her constant live-streaming and horribly off-key protest songs have finally alerted locals to call 9-1-1, and Abby is met by Officer Tim Bentley: an older policeman who hopes to convince Abby to leave on her own accord without having to go through the hassle of arresting her.
