The board accepts this will get him far from regular wicked exercises. The special stepped area workers follow a mate pal framework where the sheep (a term used to allude to amateurs) is collaborated with a senior church youth, called the shepherd. In light of his reputation, Zach is relegated as the sheep of the top of the shepherds, Christian (Henry Villanueva). Zach, albeit a force to be reckoned with tri-competitor, is fizzling in scholastics. In the interim, Christian is an achiever all around — Prom King, Mr. Nourishment Month, Ginoong Agham, Mr. Sportsfest, Campus King, and President of the Altar Servers.
