Storia
Two salesmen, Danny and Wheeler, total their company truck while on an energy drink-fueled bender. Sentenced to community service, they are ordered to participate in a mentorship program through Big Brother-style volunteering. They find themselves assigned to two kids with troubled backgrounds: Augie and Justin. Despite their initial negativity and lack of enthusiasm, Danny and Wheeler begin to bond with the boys over time, particularly during a disastrous camping trip where they must rely on each other for survival.
