"Maybe it would be justice after all. For what [Michael "Digger Griswald] did to be in prison, maybe [he] deserves to get squished to death like a dumb insect and buried under a bunch of trash. Maybe [he] was nothing but trash [himself.] Heck, [his] father had been telling [him] that for years." Digger's practical joke against the man who bought his grandfather's farm and tore down his house backfired. He has drilled holes in his kayak and the man's three-year-old son had died. Digger is sentenced to nine months in a juvenile detention center, but his conduct disorder compelled him to run away. He plans to get back home and protect his mom and brother and sister from his dad. he exacerbates his crime and finds himself in one life or death situation after another. Forced to lay low by injury, he spends time a campgrounds. His interactions with Nora, Luke, and Woody cause Digger to examine his plans and come to terms with his troubled past.
