2018, 15 minutes

A 16-year-old falls in with a bar crowd and turns to his religious family for support. He soon discovers that not everyone practices what they preach.

A 16-year-old drug dealer, Clive, wakes up, hurries to get ready and takes a call from Ben. Sal makes her second purchase of the day from Clive, whilst Mrs Parks waits to confront Clive. Mrs Parks confronts Clive after finding drugs in his room, and Dana comes to invite her mum to a church event. Clive drops off the money he made during the day at Uncle Carl’s storage and picks up a new pack. He then takes a call from James, who is worried after calls from Dana and Mrs Parks. Clive enters Dana and James’ house to find her in bed with X, which stirs an emotional argument. Clive goes to Uncle Carl’s Storage to return the pack of drug he previously collected and announces his decision to stop helping ‘UNC’. Clive goes back to Dana and James’ house, where Dana has already opened up to Mrs Parks. He truly breaks down as he informs them of his change of mind-set and challenges Dana to follow suit.
