His three daughters, Sierra, Lauryn, and China, live with their maternal grandmother, Kat, but Monty visits regularly and provides financial support.

Before her death, Kat asks Monty to take custody of them since her disowned daughter/Monty's ex-wife Jennifer, barely has any interest in the girls, caring more about her live-in drug dealer boyfriend Joe because of the divorce that caused the day of the deception and approximately decides to take revenge on Monty Following Kat's funeral, Jennifer arrives with Joe and his thugs.

Monty accepts a job as a driver for attorney Julia Rossmore at the recommendation of his next-door neighbor Maya to earn extra money.

One night, after Julia’s friends Brenda and Cynthia set her up on a blind date with Byron, Monty has to work later than expected.

When Monty arrives at the hospital, it is revealed that Sierra accidentally started a fire and that the girls were home alone with no adult supervision until Maya rescued them.

Sierra explains that Joe and Jennifer are forcing her to sell drugs, threatening to hurt Monty if she refuses.

Aware that Joe can afford a high-power attorney for the custody hearing, Monty goes to Julia for help, but she turns him away, assuming he only wants the girls to get government assistance.

Jennifer's lawyer counters by claiming that Monty is not suitable to raise the girls due to a conviction of statutory rape that occurred 16 years prior.
