John Scaduto has a problem. If he can get through the school term without getting in trouble, he stands to get a $10,000 check from his grandma. Unfortunately, he has already set into motion an epic prank that will maim his headmaster and earn him up to one demerit on his permanent record. But when his headmaster is incapacitated by a second, unrelated Scaduto attack, John realises that the answer to his problem is simple: hire a random drifter to pretend to be the Principal and hope against hope that he doesn't turn out to be some kind of sex criminal.

Enter Fitz, a free-spirited traveller who takes on the role of Dr Vernon Baxter, the substitute Principal, in exchange for some drumsticks and the chance to mess with the system. But before long, Fitz's methods are causing anarchy at the school, plus about 14 other plot lines that I don't really have the space to go into here. But can John reign in Fitz's anarchic spirit and bring the school back under control? Why is there a second Vernon Baxter running around? And why is there a THIRD Vernon Baxter running around? Listen and find out!
