Bad Attitudes

In a world where the ordinary meets the outrageous, a routine commercial flight becomes an unexpected arena of chaos. Two professional hijackers board the plane with a single, high‑stakes goal: capture a billionaire for a massive ransom. Their plan takes a sudden, bewildering turn when they discover the aircraft isn’t filled with executives or elite travelers, but a lively group of exceptionally clever children who have somehow become the unlikely centerpiece of a hostage situation.

The youngsters arrive fresh from Spirit of the Frontier, a summer camp that specializes in taming “attitude problems.” Among them, Dabney and Cosmo lead the pack with mischievous confidence, while Jenny brings a scheming streak, James supplies a quiet bravado, and Angela keeps to herself, headphones perpetually plugged in. Their shared history of rough‑housing, obstacle courses, and witty banter has forged a bond that thrives on testing limits, making the cramped cabin feel more like a playground for clever pranks than a prison.

On the adult side, Norman Decker—the billionaire target—exudes the detached wealth of the ultra‑rich, oblivious to the mischief brewing just behind his seat. The camp’s gruff counselor Bruce watches the kids with a wary eye, aware that his job may soon extend beyond typical supervision. Meanwhile, the hijackers, Katyana and Jurgen, find themselves caught between their original mission and the unexpected challenge of managing a cabin full of sharp‑witted youths who seem intent on turning the tables.

The tone of the story balances rapid‑fire comedy with genuine tension, letting the audience ride a roller‑coaster of witty dialogue, daring improvisation, and high‑altitude suspense. As the plane circles above the airport, the stage is set for a desperate rescue effort, where the children’s ingenuity and the adults’ uneasy alliances promise a showdown that tests every character’s limits without revealing how it will ultimately resolve.
