They must escape juvey-cops and enemies who like them, are unwinds in order to not be unwound. The kids have to live on their own for months on end and move from safe house to safe house just to stay alive. In order to survive they all have to learn to trust each other and work together or it will be fatal for all of them. If they can hide until they are 18, they can no longer be unwound, but staying hidden for that long is a struggle. Tempers flare and fights ensue daily in the safe homes and Happy Jacks is where it all will end for some.
