Johnny and Charlotte are left to fend for themselves in their rundown trailer park when their dad is arrested and their mom runs off with another man. They thought the next welfare meeting was their biggest problem. Nope. Jailbird Dad slaps them with a secret that could tear their lives apart, leaving Charlie and Johnny to question what's true and who they can trust. With all of that happening, why not change to a fancy private school and keep their real lives a secret? Scholarship for the budding actress? Sure. Illegal activities to pay for brother's tuition? Of course. Chaos to deflect the possibility that their dad's story could be true? Definitely.
