The punk band Hot Patch is driving to their next show. The car is filled with excitement and giggles until flashes of memories make them realise: ‘’This is not what we want!”

Hot Patch is over and done with! A new future is looking brighter than ever. They can be anything they want, if only they could shake off the past.
