Armpit is living in Austin, Texas. It is three years since he left the confines of Camp Green Lake Detention Centre and Armpit is taking small steps to turn his life around. He is working for a landscape gardener because he is good at digging holes, he is going to school and he is enjoying his first proper romance. But is he going to be able to stay out of trouble when old friend X-ray is on the scene?
