Años 90. Michael (Ryder McLaughlin), de 18 años, se encuentra en ese punto de su vida que todo estudiante debe afrontar: ¿y ahora qué? El joven está atrapado entre el camino que su padre (Vince Vaughn) quiere para él, y su sueño de convertirse en un skater profesional. Sus amigos le animan a alejarse del status quo pero, cuando Rachel aparece en su vida, Michael empieza a dudar de sus elecciones.
Two best friends, from South Central Los Angeles, fantasize about living lavishly when a credit card pre-approval letter with no set spending limit suddenly arrives in the mail.
The second episode of Illegal Civilization's Summer of '17 moves away from a story of romantic love and instead moves to the love and tension of friendship, keeping with the themes of turmoil and familiarity presented in episode one. This time the films opens with a search for a lost wallet, the morning after a party. But as the film progresses it is clear that the search has heavier implications than just searching for some lost cash.

During this precious chunk of time off from school, adults are often out of sight, even further out of mind, and friends become the most important people on the planet.
