Lynqz Synopses This is a wild comedy about three lifelong friends and golfing buddies, Trey, ML, and Mooch. Trey is the leader, strong, but brooding. ML graduated at the top of his university class in hospitality management. He’s skilled, intelligent, a true student of the game and history of golf, and completely wasted in his current job as manager of a local fast food restaurant. Mooch is a stoner who just wants to do his 40 hours on the loading dock, and come home to smoke a joint and listen to his old record collection. Although Mooch is 27, he still lives at home with his mom. They have to play on a crummy public golf course in crowded, unpleasant conditions as it’s their only local choice, but they long for the luxury and class of the private country club across the street. When another old friend, Darnell, a pro football player, signs as a free agent with the Atlanta team and moves back home, he gets a membership in the country club as a perquisite. Naturally he invites his friends to join him. The gang visits the country club, and hilarity ensues. There’s just a slight catch… When they were younger, Darnell and Trey had made up the number one quarterback-receiver combo in Georgia high school history. After high school, Darnell went on to become a star in college and the pros, where he became the league MVP. Unfortunately, Trey was considered too small by the colleges and wasn’t recruited. He never went beyond high school and now drives a truck for UPS. Trey harbors quite a bit of resentment for his old teammate and friend. He’s so angry about his failure at football that it affects his whole life. His relationship with the mother of his son, Xaviera, is strained, and, ashamed at his lack of success, he feels an inadequate father to his son. Trey has a gift too. He’s not the great football player he’d always dreamed of being, but he has an immense talent at golf. His friends encourage him to pursue it, but Trey can only see himself as a football player. The groundskeeper at the country club is fine older gentleman named Lamar Taylor. Lamar had been one of the first African-American golfers to make the pro tour in the 1960’s, and is an idol of ML’s. Darnell asks Lamar to work with Trey to develop his golf game for the pro tour. It’s definitely not a match made in heaven, but it just might work. Meanwhile, there is much consternation amongst some of the country club members at their new guests. The combination of opposites makes for some uproarious situations, and a unique new use for Viagra is discovered. The country club is having its annual professional tournament July 4th and 5th; if Trey can win, he’ll get an automatic entry to the pro tour the rest of the year… if he can win. He’ll have to hone his game, calm his demons, and overcome a southern country club establishment hell bent on keeping an African-American off their trophy, to do it. |
