87-year-old Gladys' days of munching donuts and scouring the obituaries seem numbered when Death himself comes knocking on her door one morning. Ready to whisk her off into the great unknown, her cheerful grim reaper is startled by Gladys' stubborn refusal to expire.

He also gives her a taste of nursing home life from an inmate's point of view. Suddenly, the afterlife doesn't look so bad...
