The stakes are high as they navigate friendship, cultural differences, and the true meaning of acceptance.

When Darbie, a new girl from Northern Ireland, joins the class, Sophie is entranced. But Darbie snubs her. After a session with Dr. Peter, the CFGs–with Darbie–put on an Irish drama. Sophie learns that God wants you to love your neighbor as yourself.
