So Close I can Smell it 2

Well, that last post turned out much longer than planned, but I am nowhere near finished with telling you what happens, so let us continue.... Cal's new plan involves breaking the law. (This can't turn out well....) He begins stealing liquor from his delivering job and stashes in an abandoned shed. Hum? What in the world!? You'll see.... Meanwhile, Lola and him begin dating! Cal is ecstatic, and the two even profess their love for each other. scandalous. Cal is feeling pretty good about his life, getting more confident about his plan to put Lutterman behind bars, but it goes horribly wrong when he is caught red-handed stealing the liquor! He is sentenced to a month in jail, and additionally is expelled from high school. He cannot graduate, Lola breaks things off with him, and during his last days in prison, his father dies. Without seeing Gretchen, who is now contemplating suicide, will his efforts be completely wasted? Cal is ready to frame Lutterman, but cannot while stuck in a cell. He therefore takes advantage of the time out of jail for attending his father's funeral. Before returning to his cell, he hot-wires Lutterman's car, fills it with the stolen liquor, and drives it into the display window of a drug store. The police come to investigate at Lutterman's home, and Lutterman actually stabs an officer! (Definitely not helping out the situation buddy.) When Cal hears Lutterman has been thrown in jail, he is joyful for the first time in weeks. Gretchen is safe. When he is released from jail, Cal gets a job as a construction worker. He is pretty miserable after being kicked out of school and dumped by Lola. But Gretchen is put in a foster home with her sisters, and looks so much better. She is well fed, dressed more appropriately and cut her hair. She also smiles. :) Cal takes her to her first high school dance, and Steve (Cal's friend) even wants to ask her out! But, Cal and Gretchen have to testify against Lutterman in a trial, and Gretchen's not sure if she can....
