Welcome to Newport Beach in Orange County, California. A place where
children live secret lives from their parents and parents live secret lives
from their children. It's not the most perfect community. Not even close to
it. But there are so many secrets in this town the place could crumble if
some were to come out.
Ryan Atwood still needs to learn a lot about this town. He just came here 6 months ago and is still a lonely outsider. He has a few friends, but likes to keep to himself. His brother, Seth, knows almost everything about him. But there is one thing Seth doesn't know, and Seth will never find out.
Ryan just woke up. He had another one of his nightmares. It's the same one every night, but it gets scarier and scarier each time it happens.
When Ryan got out of bed, he almost jumped 50 feet in the air. "Holy shit Seth! You scared the crap out of me." "Sorry about that. I came down swim, and I wanted to know if you wanted to come. But when I looked into the pool house, you were talking to yourself and you were squirming around. Have another bad dream?" Seth said. Ryan grumbled. "So do you want to go swimming or not?" Seth begged. "Fine I'll go swimming," Ryan said.
About an hour and a half later, they got out of the pool. Ryan went into the house and got some food. OK, some was a lie. He had 3 cheeseburgers, and 8 hotdogs. "Someone was a little hungry!" Sandy stared in amazement at Ryan's appetite. "I didn't know how much I ate." Ryan was embarrassed at how much he ate. "Ryan, while you're here, we need to talk," Sandy said. "Sure. Am I in trouble?" Ryan asked. "No! Of course not! Kirsten and I noticed your grades are slipping in Math, and we decided to get you a tutor." "Sure. I don't mind. I had a tutor in Chino also. The only reason I was doing well at first was because we learned this material in Chino last year. My tutor was awesome. His name was Alec. He helped me in a lot of things." Ryan was really excited about getting another tutor, and Seth, Sandy and Kirsten were suspicious. Why would anyone want a tutor? Seth was going to get to the bottom of it.
