N2  - Seventh-grader Gary "Goon" Boone tells jokes constantly. He thinks he is funny; his parents, teachers, and classmates just think that he is obnoxious. He signs up for a school talent contest, confident that his performance will launch his career as a stand-up comic. As the contest nears, he becomes aware of how others perceive him and drops out of the contest to just be "normal".
