What's wrong with nine-year-old Jesse? He can't sit still, he curses, he raps, and you can't get him into-or out of-pajamas. His teacher thinks it's Attention Deficit Disorder. Dad says, 'He's just a boy!' And Mama's on a quest for answers. Is Jesse dysfunctional, or just different? Everyone is distracted, even the actors-they're breaking character!
