Three short films in which teenagers talk frankly about being in trouble. Their stories are illustrated with reconstructions. John used to mug children for their mobile phones. He has been inside a secure unit and a Young Offenders Institution. Now he has re-thought his life and attends a special centre which helps people like him to stay out of trouble. Laura was a junkie at the age of 14. She started with one tab of ecstasy and quickly got hooked. When her addiction was at its worst, she was taking five tabs at a time to feel any effect. Then one day she realised that she needed help and told her mum. Together, she and her mum beat her habit. She doesn't want anyone to go through what she went through. Nathan truanted from school the first time because he hated maths. He got away with it and soon truanted regularly. When he realised that 'the geeks' would be the ones with jobs he soon found a way to catch up on his education.
