maybe it was Erin Brokovich's home. Can you imagine that? I mean, it would be very different to mistakenly repossess the home of a man/woman that would know what to do - legally. So maybe this single mother started to study law but didn't finished because she was pregnant. At first she tries to solve things amicably but everyone in the bank is a jerk. She meets other people in similar situations and a multimillion dollar class action is born - and won. But let's make things harder for our protagonist. Maybe this isn't an ordinary bank - it's one heavily involved with money laundering for some of the largest drug cartels in the world. And she finds about it. The local authorities don't want to help him/her because they're on the payroll. And it's not until she uncovers evidence and goes to the feds that she can finally get his/her home, back, the people's homes back, the bad guys to jail and a huge reward.

Or in a more farcical tone, what if First Big Bad Bank accidentally repossessed the home of the CEO of the Second Big Bad Bank. Those banks were competitors, but now it's personal, so it starts a war between the two bank CEOs trying to outdo the other in every way and in not very legal ways. They even repossess each other's headquarters and branch offices.

Or maybe the bank repossessed (accidentally or not) the house of a witch (think Samantha from Bewitched), she tries to get it back in a nice way, the bank acts bullishly and her revenge involves strange magical things at the bank, the employees and the CEO. They open their vault and all the money they had turned into Monopoly Money. The gold into lead. A dragon sets home in the top of the bank's headquarters.

So a guy named Kramer starts a fire... Okay, I wrote something down before I left at about noon and it got deleted and I didn't have time to put it all back in, but I was definitely hearing Brad Pitt's line from Fight Club in my head "It's only after you've lost everything that you're free to do anything." I was also thinking of this movie called The Family, that Robert DeNiro and Michelle Pfeiffer were in that wasn't that great, but the idea of turning your everyday normal family into THAT... that could be fun to see. That whole arc. Plus, I actually want to see a family with nothing, just start back from the basics, I feel like we haven't seen that yet or for a while at least, I can see them all moving into a small empty apartment without ANY things, sleeping on the floor for a few weeks b/c they can't afford to furnish the place yet, living off what they had in their backpacks when they went off on their trip...
