Moral victories don't solve public health crises. Money does.
After years of poor water quality, Gavin fears his town, Pondville, is one burst pipe away from losing access to safe drinking water forever.
Demoralized, Gavin and his best friend MacKenzie turn to his estranged father, a board member of the infamous water company CrispFlow. CrispFlow is known for giving out grants to improve public facilities, but they've also been buying and privatizing cities' failing water systems, often leaving those towns' situations worse than they found them. Gavin wouldn't trust CrispFlow to privatize their water, but with his father on the board and Gavin and Mack interning at town hall, he might just be able to walk away with the grant money instead. Gavin's dad agrees to rig the grant process
if Gavin and MacKenzie sabotage the competition to help Crisp-Flow win an infrastructure bid. It's not above board, but everybody wins, as long as no one gets caught . . .
