But is Morgan a cold-blooded killer, an innocent victim, or something in between?
Four stoners on the verge of adulthood still have some growing to do. Michael, wearing thin his mother's patience and feeling the burden of his own irresponsible behavior, decides to give up on his dream of being a writer and become a respectable member of society -- by selling weed.
