on the characters and plot.
Bethany Lockwood is a young woman who has moved to Prince Edward Island to start a new life. She is naive and innocent, and quickly catches the attention of Gary Gallant, the self-proclaimed 'King of Pogey Beach'. Gary is a charismatic and charming man who has built a reputation as the top pogey bum in the area. He sees potential in Bethany and offers her a job working for him.
Lyle Macdonald, on the other hand, is a spiritual pogey bum who lives off the land and has a strong connection to nature. He sees the beauty in everything and lives a simple, peaceful life. He is the nemesis of Gary and is often at odds with him.
Bethany's first taste of working under the table comes when Gary hires her to work at his illegal lobster trapping operation. However, things quickly go wrong when a rival gang attacks them and steals their catch. Gary and Lyle end up in jail, leaving Bethany to hatch a plan to get them out.
The plan involves stealing a valuable painting from a wealthy island family and using the proceeds to bribe the prison guards. However, the plan backfires when they are caught in the act and end up in jail themselves.
With all three of them behind bars, Gary and Lyle must put their differences aside and work together to save Pogey Beach from a ruthless developer who is threatening to destroy their way of life. They come up with a plan to use the stolen painting to fund a campaign to save the beach and rally the community to their cause.
In the end, the two men realize that they have more in common than they thought and Bethany learns the value of friendship and community. Pogey Beach is saved and the three of them become unlikely heroes in the eyes of the community they love.
