Meet Ibn, Colin, Michael, and Dexter. Best friends since their college days, they've stuck close to home near Philadelphia and hang together when it comes to work, sports, family, and of course matters of the mysterious female heart. But they also have something unusual in common: Her name is Erika, the kid sister of a buddy who died, and they promised to look out for her. Five years ago, it seemed a gesture of simple generosity.
