His Three Daughters

The three sisters, Katie, Rachel, and Christina, gather in their father's New York City apartment as he nears the end of his battle with cancer. This emotional reunion highlights their differing relationships with their father, as Rachel has been living with him during his illness.

Katie confronts Rachel about her marijuana smoking inside the apartment, leading to a heated argument between the two. Rachel defends her actions by stating that Vincent did not mind her smoking, revealing the strain in their sisterly relationship.

Katie is taken aback to find that the refrigerator contains nothing but three bags of apples, prompting her to criticize Rachel for neglecting the household. This moment illustrates the tension and lack of communication among the sisters.

Angel, a hospice worker, along with nurse Mirabella, visits the family to discuss Vincent's critical condition. They caution the sisters that Vincent's death could come unexpectedly, adding to their stress as they grapple with their father's impending passing.

Katie finds it difficult to write an obituary for Vincent, reflecting her emotional turmoil. Meanwhile, Rachel immerses herself in sports betting, avoiding the gravity of the situation by refusing to visit Vincent’s bedroom.

The sisters contend over the fact that Rachel will inherit their family's rent-controlled apartment once Vincent passes away. Katie accuses Rachel of merely waiting for their father's death to claim the apartment, further straining their relationship.

Rachel's boyfriend, Benjy, visits and expresses his frustration towards Katie and Christina for their treatment of Rachel. He defends Rachel, reminding them that she has been the only sister actively caring for Vincent, highlighting the unrecognized efforts of Rachel.

Tempers flare as Rachel rebuffs Katie's attempt to apologize, leading to a vehement argument between the sisters. Christina, unable to handle the conflict, screams in frustration that she hates both of them, showcasing the intense family dynamics at play.

The next day, Katie and Rachel bond over the absurdity of Angel's flawed predictions about Vincent's death. This newfound kinship allows them to help each other with Vincent's obituary, creating a moment of mutual support amid their earlier conflicts.

In a shocking turn, Vincent gathers the strength to walk and expresses his love for his daughters in a heartfelt monologue. However, his moment of connection is tragically cut short as he dies shortly after reclaiming his favorite chair.

After Vincent's passing, the sisters take turns sitting in his chair, sharing a moment of heartfelt connection. Christina attempts to lighten the mood by singing a children's song, bringing laughter among the siblings even in their grief.

As Christina and Katie prepare to leave and return to their families, Rachel stays behind as the new owner of the apartment. She chooses to smoke outside, honoring her sister's wishes and reflecting on her journey of caregiving for Vincent.
