A woman answers a charity organization's ad for a motherly playground director and lands the job at the Gas House District—but her unexpected charm sends the neighborhood boys into a frenzy of competing gangs, turning the playground into a battleground and derailing her mission to help. When the chaos reaches Mrs. Rutz, the organization's supervisor, she discovers that good intentions don't always lead to orderly results.
