Synopsis

When an old woman dies without signing a will, her greedy daughter and son-in-law expect to inherit everything.

But when it turns out that Mom was simply in a coma, they face a dilemma: If they want the money, they're going to have to kill her off before she can bequeath her fortune to someone else!
