The Last Great Getaway of the Water Balloon Boys

When Charlie is getting beaten up by bullies, his ex-best-friend Jake pulls up in a bright red '67 Mustang--the principal's car--and tells him to get in.

It's a choice between a broken nose and the risk of a lifetime, and for the first time in his life, Charlie decides to take a chance.

Now, Charlie and Jake are on a mission to find Charlie's absent father, and to avoid getting arrested for car theft.

On the way, Charlie will learn a lot more about life than he ever expected to, discover the bond of friendship he never thought he'd have, and end up in the middle of a court case, a thousand miles from home. And in that courtroom, Charlie, a self-described straight-A student and grade-A geek, will have to make the ultimate choice of his life.
