You Don't Mean It (Staig)

Craig, the struggling 11th grader, beats up not so deserving students. No bully does anything out of nothing, they all have a motive. Craig's motive were his embarrassing grades and his awkward social skills. Stan Marsh, (the star wide receiver on the football team) is asked by the principal himself to tutor the rebellious teenager, whether he likes it or not. The Principal has forced the two onto each other in an attempt to keep Craig from going to Juvie. Craig hates every second of it, and Stan fears that spending every other night with Craig may reveal his personal problems his true feelings. Craig grows to like Stan, but just as soon as his feelings appear, something drastic occurs. Something happened with Stan the night Craig left him. He wasn't the same. He seemed distant, he drank alcohol now. Craig couldn't recognize the person his complicated heart had fallen for.
