Tregan, a marginalized high school senior, picks up a hitchhiker on his way to a rock concert. The hitchhiker turns out to be Jesus, there in answer to Tregan's prayer to not have to go to the concert alone. After Tregan tells a friend about his experience, the story spreads across the school and community at an alarming rate. Most are outraged at Tregan's claims, and he eventually denies the whole thing, remembering that Jesus had asked him not to tell anyone about it in the first place.
