His younger brother Shawn steps in to defend him, but chaos breaks out and Shawn is critically injured.

Bad Boy 1 &4Male16-17 y.o.African-American Latino / Hispanic White / Caucasian

Bad Boys 2,4 He’s the kid who always has a comeback ready—sharp, quick, and usually a little too bold for his own good. His mouth moves faster than his caution, and half the time the adults don’t know whether to laugh or send him out of the room. He’s got that spark in his eyes, the kind that says he’s already thought of three jokes before you’ve finished your sentence.

RemiFemale15-17 y.o.African-American Latino / Hispanic

REMI/ Sings He walks through life with a quiet confidence, the kind that doesn’t come from pride but from faith. No matter what he faces—stress, setbacks, or storms—he meets it with prayer first. He’s the type of man who bows his head before he raises his voice, who talks to God before he talks to anyone else. People around him notice it: that steady peace he carries, like he knows something the rest of the world keeps forgetting.
