Peaches (Tiffany Limos) is a girl living alone with her extremely religious father (Julio Oscar Mechoso), who fixates on her as the embodiment of her deceased mother.

Claude's father detests him for being insufficiently manly, but after coming home drunk one night, he attempts to perform oral sex on him, causing Claude to run away from home. Claude (Stephen Jasso) is a troubled teen who fends off physical and emotional abuse from his alcoholic father while trying to take care of his very pregnant mother, who never does anything to defend him (mostly because she is used to the abuse that Claude's father inflicts upon her and Claude). He casually socializes with their family, who (including his girlfriend) are completely unaware of the situation and they never find out about him and Rhonda. He has an ongoing sexual relationship with his girlfriend (Zara Mcdowell)'s mother, Rhonda (Maeve Quinlan), throughout the story. Shawn (James Bullard) is the most stable of the four main characters. His death is used to set up the rest of the film, which follows the lives of four other teens he used to hang out with, shortly after the suicide. He arrives at a skate park, where he casually sits in the middle of it, sets up a camcorder, and shoots himself in the head with a handgun.

In the opening scene, teenager Ken Park (Adam Chubbuck) is seen skateboarding across Visalia.
