The Lifeguard

Leigh is about to turn 30 and while she wants to be a respected journalist in the big city, no one seems to care about her story about a mistreated tiger who died. She needs to return to her parents' home in the small town she once called home. Her parents welcome her, and Leigh gets a job as a lifeguard for the summer. She meets "Little Jason", who is not little, but is the son of her boss Big Jason. We'll just call him Jason. Leigh meets up with old friends Mel, the high school vice-principal, and Todd, who works in a museum. They have a good time together, even though Mel is trying to get pregnant and shouldn't be drinking or smoking weed. Jason and his friends are losers and want out of this loser town. Meanwhile, they ask the adults to buy them beer. Instead, they try to convince the guys they are not losers. They do seem to get through to Jason. Leigh and Jason develop a special relationship. Maybe too special. Meanwhile, Mel's life is falling apart. So will Leigh go back to her real job? Because life in a small town isn't quite what she hoped it would be. Her parents aren't quite what she was hoping for.
