De jonge Trevor krijgt een opmerkelijke nieuwe opdracht van z'n leraar maatschappijleer: bedenk een manier om de wereld te verbeteren. Trevor bedenkt een plan, waarbij iedereen een goede daad moet doen voor drie mensen, die dat op hun beurt ieder weer bij drie anderen moeten doen. Op het eerste gezicht lijkt het idee te mislukken, maar na een tijdje slaat het idee toch aan, wat een geweldige verandering teweeg brengt in de omgeving van Trevor.
