Synopsis

Reanne's finishing up her school psychology project about group dynamics. According to her Wheel of Dynamics, Ben is the "group goof," Jason is the "cool guy," Simon is the "smart-techy guy," Reanne is the "socially conscious one," Hanna is the "self-concerned one," and Talia is the "aloof one." Ben, hurt that he has been labeled "the group goof," decides that he wants to play the role of "the cool guy." In doing so, he throws off the entire group's dynamics. Suddenly, each member of the group takes on another's identity, and chaos breaks out! In the end, Ben realizes that he is who he is, and that he can't change that.
