Dare

In Adam Salky’s Dare Ben is a nerdy technician for the high school play who has a crush on Johnny the lead and a jock. Ben finally works up the nerve to ask Johnny if he needed somebody to run lines with because Johnny has been struggling. Johnny accepts and brings Ben over to his house. When the alcohol begins the truth begins to come out. Ben goes on the offensive and begins to overtly flirt with Johnny. They are together in a trance that is eventually broken by unannounced guest. Ben took the risk that eventually broke his heart. This is another aspect of the journey. What would have happened if those unannounced guest did not show up. What would happen if Ben did not have the guts? This is one of the many things the journey takes.
