| | Synopsis
|
"We all have moments that define us. For the comically clueless
Wilbur, his moment happened on the first day of middle school, when
someone shared his private letter with the entire student body. It
revealed some of Wilbur's innermost embarrassing thoughts that no one
else should ever know. Now it's the start of ninth grade and Wilbur
hasn't been able to escape that major humiliation. His good friend
Alex stuck by him, but Alex doesn't have as much time since he started
dating Fabrizio. Luckily, Wil can confide in his best friend: his
elderly neighbor Sal. Also, Wil's in the school band, where he plays
the triangle. They're doing an exchange program with students from
Paris, and Wilbur's billet, Charlie, a tall, chic young woman who
plays the ukulele and burps with abandon, captures his heart. Charlie
likes him, but only as a friend. So Alex, Fabrizio and Sal host a
Queer Eye-style intervention to get Wil in shape and to build his
confidence so he can impress Charlie when their band visits Paris, and
just maybe replace humiliation with true romance in the City of
Love."— Provided by publisher.
