Pay It Forward
When moving up to the 7th grade, Trevor McKinney (Haley Joel Osment) doesn't even suspect that his new social studies teacher, Mr. Simonet (Kevin Spacey), will change not only his life forever but lives of many people all over America. Having assigned his students to come up with an idea of world improvement, Eugene Simonet at first doesn't take seriously Trevor's utopian plan. The precocious Trevor reflects that you can make the world better by doing a favor for a stranger and by that stranger paying it forward with good deeds for three other people. Trevor starts to follow his own philosophy of life and helps local outcast Jerry (James Caviezel) to open a new chapter. His next recipients whom Trevor wants to bring together are his single, overworked, alcoholic mother, Arlene McKinney (Helen Hunt), and the lonely Eugene with a scarred face.
