Summer holidays at the beach house - with Kelly! Kelly Falkner's ice-blue eyes and her 1000-watt smile have long been a big hit with Ismael, but now the beloved is leaving with her family for New Zealand. Ismael's friend Razza solves the problem in his own way: He fixes Ishmael up with Cindy, but he has other plans. As a senior in school, Ismael prefers to spend time in the debating club with his friends to discuss the big questions of humanity. And Ignatius, Scobie and Bill also take off: The supposedly unathletic ones develop into real volleyball cracks, the supposedly unmusical ones form a cool band and in debating they all make it big. Then the big final chord: Summer holidays in the beach house - with Kelly!
