Summary:
When a local bully upsets the senior community by throwing wild parties, an effort that is complicated by Aaron's PTSD and Tom's unrequited feelings for the bully's sister, misfit Tom and his friend Ed take matters into their own hands.
Tom Grendel writes in his notebooks, mows lawns for his elderly neighbors, and pines for Willow, a girl next door. When Willow's brother, Rex starts throwing wild parties, the idyllic senior citizens' community where they live is transformed into a war zone. Tom's dad is an Iraq vet, and the noise from the parties triggers his PTSD, so Tom comes up with a plan to end the parties for good. But of course, it's not that simple.
