"The typical modern American family; sibling rivalry, disobeying your parents, the confused rebellious teenager. Will he fit in or fall by the wayside forever? Everybody is so focused on Allison, Do we tell Mom and Dad she's dating that kid? Can we blackmail her into relaizing what's good and what's not? Scottie stays quietly in the background with little notice. He's the quiet, perfect kid; what could go wrong? Soon the others realize Scottie is acting...different than usual. It could just be a random teenage phase or getting used to high school, but...I can't explain it. I guess you could call it a gut feeling or whatever. Kurt Larsen, the school bully: I know I haven't been the nicest person to Scott but I'm worried about him. "Scottie! Oh, Scottie please, no." Scottie was slumped against the wall, a bottle lay just inches from his limp right hand. Will Scott survive Allie's drama?" An american family of 12 trying to find their own way in life and encountering hardships and bonds of love.
