This short film i beleive can be seen as a punitive plot.

He continues on with what he is doing with out picking up their calls and completely ignoring them. the main guy's character is definetly defined as from the actions and words of the characters around him. He actually never does or say anything that makes you dislike him, but you can by the people around him the kind of person he is.

They both talk about how much havoc he has been causing around the school. As they walk a rope layed out on the ground where they are about to cross. As they walk on to it it pulls tight. Both of them trip on it and fall on the ground. The prankster that they were talking about reveals himself and that he was the one that triped them. He laughs at them hysterically and annoyingly, and runs a way from the scene. The two friends stand up, being very annoyed, and brush them selves off. they agree to just let him go and that he not worth it. They leave toward their class.
Later in the day, the first friend is seen going to the bathroom by him self. He enters the bathroom and goes into one of the stalls, not knowing that the prankster is hiding in the stall next to him. As the he is going to the bathroom, the prankster pulls out two cans of silly string and starts to shake them. He hears the shaking noise but is not sure what it is. As he looks up he sees the prankster with the cans and the silly string coming at him. Both cans are completely unloaded on him. The prankster runs out the bathroom laughing hysterically. He goes to chase him, covered in silly string just to find out that he has been locked into the bathroom.
The second boy is seen walking into the locker after PE. He heads to his locker and takes off his gym clothes that he places behind him. Right before he is about to open the locker, his phone in his gym pocket rings. He answers it. As he turns back to his locker, the prankster steals away his clothes. On the phone, is his friend warning him about the prankster. At the same time he opens his locker,and he sees that all his stuff is gone. he turns back for his gym clothes and they are gone to. At this point the prankster reveals himself with his stuff and a bottle filled with a yellow liquid. The prankster slowly opens the bottle and pours it on the clothes and then the boy himself. The prankster runs out and he pursues him but he is already gone. Outside, he runs into his friend that is still covered in silly string. they both agree that something must be done.
Both boys are seen in a dark room with a large paper in front of them. They are working on their plan but what they are doing is completely unintelligible and inaudible.
The prankster is seen in his home in the morning sleeping in his bed. He wakes up like it is any other day. he walks into the hallway and slips on a skate board, falling to the ground. Once he realizes what happens, he wonders who's skateboard it is. He walks to his closet to realize that all his clothes are are gone. there is a letter in the closet telling him to look outside. He heads toward the backyard. he sees that all his clothes is in the yard. he goes to investigate and there is a letter on the ground. he bends over to read it. It says "GOTCHYA!". Unknowingly the two boys sneak up behind him and give him the biggest wedgie ever. The prankster lays on the ground in pain as the two boys slowly walk out of the yard.
