Jason has amnesia. He wakes up on a school bus on the way to the Grand Canyon with what appears to be his very confused girlfriend (Piper) and a bemused, slightly disbelieving best friend (Leo) who both seem very surprised that he can’t remember spending the last few months together at the “Wilderness School”, a boarding school for juvenile delinquents.
