A few years after Ben Archer's parents' divorce, his mother Sandy's new boyfriend, Jack, moves in and makes changes that he doesn't like. On friends' advice, Ben gets Jack to join the Indian Guides with him, hoping the experience will send him running. At first, he does want to do so, but another parent in the Guides tells him that Ben is afraid of losing Sandy, so Jack stays and wants to give it and Ben his best effort.
