Plot
Landon Paige is a 17-year-old entering his senior year of high school, almost ready from the pressure put on him by the outside world. It is the second day of school, and he goes to sit down at a table next to his best friend, Melinda Fox, but one of his rivals, Sid McCain, sits in front of him, constantly making rude comments. Landon moves, while Melinda follows. Melinda asks what Sid's problem is, and Landon says that Sid is an ego-centered weirdo.

The next day, Landon joins the football team, and is coached by Coach Brant. Landon is put at wide receiver, and has immediate success, catching the ball for 4 touchdowns in the first game, winning against Belpre 28-0. He takes his team to 10-0 and they make the playoffs. But, the joy stops there. Landon is injured in the final game of the season, and they lose to New Lexington, 28-26. Landon quickly recovers, though, and is ready for basketball season.

Meanwhile, during football season at school, Landon quietly starts to become a social outcast, losing most of his friends, other than Melinda, who knows who Landon truly is on the inside. Sid and his friends Kyle and Ty start ridiculing Landon, and he becomes depressed. Melinda tries to help Landon, but nothing starts to work during this.

Before the start of basketball season, a new student comes into the school named Lauren Porter. She asks Landon out, and he agrees. They start to get to know each other better, and Lauren starts liking Landon a lot. But, one day, Landon is absent from school, sick, and Melinda is walking around in the hallways to her next class. Suddenly, Lauren comes up to her and says "Don't do anything stupid. I know how good friends you are with him" and walks away. Melinda looks confused, and walks away, not thinking anything of it.

One day, during December, after Landon scores 73 points in a basketball game, Sid McCain walks up to him and tells him that they are having a party and that he and Lauren were invited. Landon agrees, not thinking much of it, but the truth is that Sid was going to try and humiliate Landon at the party. Sid reveals a shocking detail of Landon's past (which wasn't true) and causes Lauren to break up with him. Landon drives himself home, crying the entire way, with Sid and Kyle standing outside the house, laughing and smoking.

Landon drives in front of Melinda's house, and walks in. Melinda greets him, and Landon tells Melinda the entire story of what happened. Landon starts crying, sitting on the steps next to Melinda, and Melinda tells him not to worry, but Landon still cries. Melinda kisses Landon, and Landon suddenly stops crying. Landon and Melinda stay there.

Landon wakes up in his car, with tears still rolling down his face. He thinks that the entire night was only a dream, but he is ridiculed at school, and realizes that Melinda was the only part that was a dream. When he gets home, he tries to end it all, but luckily, Melinda shows up at that moment to get him to stop.

Here's the script from that part:

Melinda: "Landon, stop!"

Landon: "I can't. This life has gone too far"

Melinda: "Don't take it out on yourself! Take it out on them!"

Landon: "What do you mean?"

Melinda: "Get Sid and Kyle and, I think, Ty back!"

Landon: "How?"

Melinda: "I don't know!"

Landon: "Why do you even care?"

Melinda: "Landon, you're my best friend. Why wouldn't I care?"

Landon: "Maybe because no one else does"

Melinda: "Stop it"

Landon reveals the entire story to Melinda, for real this time, and Melinda is shocked by the horrifying details. Melinda decides to help Landon get a payback against Kyle and Sid.

Landon, the next day, practices rapping, and he is very fluent now. He decides that he is ready for something.

During basketball season, Landon leads Miller to a surprising 22-4 record, and beats his brother's 1,357 point record with 1,432 points of his own. Landon gets Miller to its first regional final, and they are the runner-up in the region. Landon is congratulated but still ridiculed by classmates.

A talent show opportunity comes up for Landon, who can also sing, and decides to sing one of the most dramatic songs he had ever heard- "Real Love" by Hillsong Young & Free. He wins first place, over Lauren, who is shocked at his singing talent.

It is suddenly May, and the school is hosting an event for aspiring rappers- a rap-off tournament. Landon realizes that this is the only chance to redeem himself for the false incident at the party, and decides to take part. He is put on the opposite side of the bracket as Sid McCain, which he is glad for, so he could face him in the championship if possible.

First up, he has to face his former friend Hunter Shift. Landon completely outraps Hunter, and advances to the next round of the tournament after a 5-0 unanimous vote. He then faces Kyle, who he also outraps in a 4-1 votes, moving on to the final round, where, of course, he has to rap against Sid McCain.

Sid makes some epic burns, Landon roasts him back, but Landon eventually wins, and wins a rap record deal with Capitol Christian Music.

Landon is glorified once again, and starts to date Melinda, who accompanies him to his record signing.

At graduation, Landon performs a rap to celebrate his high school life.

2 years later, Landon is backstage getting ready for his first ever concert. Suddenly, a man in a hoodie walks in. He reveals himself as NF, Landon's all-time favorite rapper, and gives Landon a noogie. NF says "You ready, bro?" and Landon replies, "I've been ready for 5 years, Nate."
