When he was a boy, George's parents lived in Weymouth, MA and his old man files for bankruptcy and has a conversation with him that money is not real. When he becomes a man, he and Tuna move to LA, where they meet Barbara Buckley, a tall, pretty, and nice airline stewardess, and other women I can say and mention too. Later Tuna gets weed and wants to either sell or smoke it and Barbara and George say that it's useless and if they want to be successful at selling weed she knows who they need to talk and see.
Sure enough, they go and talk and hang out with Derek Foreal, a pot dealer and hairdresser, who after being paranoid about them he decides to deal with them and with his aid, they transform the weed business into an immense, big success. At the same time, George and Barbara walk on the beach, and he says how happy he is and how cheerful she is and then Kevin Dulli, a college student and dealer, says that they can make a lot of money in Boston and talks to Derek and Barbara about this expanding. Derek agrees and Barbara smuggles the pot from him and George to Boston and even though they gather large profits, George feels that they need more money so they go to Mexico. There George meets a Mexican weed dealer, who at first thinks they are moving too quick but then decides to deal with them.
George's and the other characters have a honky dory life things until go downhill when George gets caught with possession of weed in Chicago, IL and is sentenced to do jail time, which he then tries to run away from when Barbara is revealed to be terminally ill with cancer, choosing to spend whatever time she has left with her, later dies.

At this point Mirtha reveals her true colors, that she is a gold-digger mainly drawn to George for his accumulated fortune from years of smuggling as well as the thrill of being a criminal. She unfortunately also turns out to be a carbon copy of his mother, in addition to being a gold-digger, a self-righteous and arrogant hypocrite that treated George as someone beneath her and begins cheating on George while he is in prison before visiting him in prison to tell him about her affair and that she is divorcing him and demands alimony and child support. Then when he bails out, he promises his daughter a trip to California, which is later broken when he is setup by Kevin Dulli and Derek Foreal, in order to save their own asses and is arrested and sent to prison. Later in life, George patched things up with his daughter and then got released from prison and after a few legal issues completed his punishment for that as well.
