After a day of being relentlessly ridiculed and bullied at school, a teenage girl Stephanie is driven to think that her life and her stutter won't get any better and there's no way out. Hopelessly upset, she rides to her local hardware store to get what she needs to hurt herself. At the counter, she meets Delores, a girl from her school. Delores recognises that Stephanie is in trouble and strikes up a conversation about their apparent mutual love of 90's grunge music. Stephanie doesn't engage in the conversation at first, but Delores nonchalant attitude towards her stutter puts her at ease. By the end of their brief conversation, fearing there might not be another chance, Delores offers Stephanie some comfort and company, which she takes. Through this chance meeting, Stephanie finds acceptance and a reason to not go through with her original plan.
