The only problem? Marisol's a lesbian, and John knows it. John's buddy Brian even encourages him to ask Marisol to prom, and when he does, she accepts, buys a dress, and arrives just in time for the limo. Somehow, Marisol gets John to break out of his shell a bit. While all of this is happening, John is dealing with his abandonment issues. At first it's whenever John's in town visiting his dad, but pretty quickly, the pair read each other their writing, go to concerts, and grab dinner together. Miraculously, however, the two become friends. He is, after all, the world's most jaded person, and she's competing for the prize. When John meets mysterious and cool Marisol after reading her writing, we expect the two to push each other away. The guy ran out on them and doesn't want a family, but takes him out for pizza every Friday night like clockwork. They got divorced when he was a kid and ever since, his mom has been depressed and won't touch him-no really, no contact-and his dad is even worse. Meet high school junior John Galardi, Jr., a dude who's cynical to a fault, immune to emotion, and hates his parents.
