Description John Sellars is a self-made millionaire who figures that if money can't buy happiness, at least it can keep his kid in line. Nathan is a smart-mouthed fifteen-year-old who's just been expelled from his third school this year. When John hires a washed-out, Daihatsu-driving hippy to save Nathan's maths grades, three opposing mindsets go head-to-head in a comedy of (bad) manners, modern education and parenthood.
