At Lawrenceville School, mischievous young Dink Stover earns the nickname "The Varmint" for his rebellious antics and knack for stirring up trouble. As he navigates the strict expectations of prep school life, he slowly transforms from an unruly prankster into a leader among his peers. But will his newfound sense of responsibility be enough to redefine his reputation and secure his place in the school's storied traditions?
