James Bonaparte’s father threw him out of his house upon discovering that he is homosexual. Known to his friends as Bones, James is arrested for vagrancy, escapes from the local police station and makes his way not only into Dave’s home, but into his life as well. Dave’s comfortable life is completely changed after Bones announces to his classmates on his first day of class that he is gay and challenges anyone to fight him in the schoolyard, during the lunch break, if they have a problem with him being gay. Soon Dave finds himself standing up for gay rights to the entire town, until some town’s people decide to teach both men a lesson.
