His good friend is killed in a car accident that leaves Paul with broken limbs and a seriously messed up face. When he's finally recovered and leading a big outdoor education program, he finds his dad trying to get a drunken chaperone into her tent.
Drew's classmate is drawn into prostitution and in trying to rescue her he's assaulted by her would-be pimp, injuring his hand and jeopardizing his jazz career. His girlfriend, Elektra, a fragile dynamo, has a bipolar meltdown and breaks up with him.
Paul and Drew Emory, a senior and a junior in high school, have a lot to sort out. They have big questions and tough situations to navigate through, even though their classmates think they've got it all-looks, smarts, talent and hot girlfriends. The brothers are trying to Do What Matters.
