You are seventeen and your junior year at Amity Beach Highschool is coming to an end. You turn in your final paper and the bell rings, just like that you are free for a whole two and a half months. How will you spend that time? Surfing, probably, tanning, enjoying the sun. Most of all you want to spend the summer with Mr. Quint.

Quint frequents the ice cream parlor you work at every Sunday after church and waits the extra ten minuets chatting for you to start up the machines. After two months of the same routine you find yourself catching feelings for the man that is your father’s age. This summer you want to spend it with him.
