Hey Lawrence Whitener - this logline could benefit from some streamlining. To further clarify goals and stakes, here's the template that I use: “After ______ (the inciting incident/the event that sets the plot in motion), a _______ (an adjective and the protagonist's position/role) tries to _______ (goal of story) so/in order to ________ (stakes).”
You don't have to use it exactly but it does help clarify the goals and stakes.
