Ozzie believes if he ignores all the voices in his head then he'll make it. He'll be what everyone expects him to be: Hancock High's football all-star. But when the chance comes for him to prove who he really is, he becomes numb and doesn't care about who may be hurt, as long as the comments don't attack him. But Ozzie's silence begins to impact those around him. As Ozzie's world begins to fall apart, the voices in his head remain strong. If he takes a stand for anything, will it even matter? Or worse, if he does speak, will he cause more harm than good?
