Chris's father remarries to a woman who doesn't understand Chris or his twin sister, so their time under the same roof becomes fraught with tension. Unbeknownst to them, their mother's cancer was caused not by her smoking like she said, but by exposure to radiation from the Chernobyl nuclear disaster in 1986.
