The Recruit

Synopsis

Tegan Young is an army recruiter who recruits Colin Dillard to enlist. Colin is a homeless,gay, eighteen-year-old who needs a place to stay. Tegan brings Colin back to his house where he lives with a fellow soldier, Rudy Vaughn. Rudy is unimpressed with Colin and hates how sensitive Colin is when he has never faced the true tragedy of combat. Tensions rise and so do the stakes in their relationships. Meanwhile, Toby has had enough of Uncle Carl's bullshit. He consults his computer whiz roommate to hack into Uncle Carl's laptop and plant some incriminating items on the hard drive. When Toby and the roommate seduce Uncle Carl, Carl feels he's won the lottery. Little does he know they are fucking up his life by planting evidence and swatting him.
