What do you do when you are dying of boredom and your much-loved PS4 console blows up unexpectedly? Jordan, 14, decides to feign illness to raise money for a new console through an online fundraiser.
Jordan and Patrick are best mates who spend every spare moment together. They love riding their bikes through the fields and meadows and, even more so, playing Call of Duty together on their PlayStation 4, which they affectionately call Jessica. When it suddenly breaks down one day, Jordan has an idea how to earn money for a new one. He's just shaved his head, so… he decides to play seriously ill and launch an online fundraiser for his medical treatment. The situation spirals out of control when the entire school finds out about his alleged health problems. Will the truth come out? Can Jordan and Patrick still be friends?
