The loons are back again on Golden Pond and so are Norman Thayer, a
retired professor, and Ethel who have had a summer cottage there since
early in their marriage. This summer their daughter Chelsea -- whom they
haven't seen for years -- feels she must be there for Norman's
birthday. She and her fiance are on their way to Europe the next day but
will be back in a couple of weeks to pick up the fiance's son. When she
returns Chelsea is married and her stepson has the relationship with
her father that she always wanted. Will father and daughter be able to
communicate at last?
