Willie (played by Frankie Muniz) is the only child in his family. In those days, only children were extremely rare. As a result, Willie was bullied and excluded by his peers, and his personality became increasingly reclusive. Only Dink (played by Luke Wilson), who lives next door, can make Willie feel happy and safe. He even asks Dink for advice on how to become a baseball pitcher. But it wasn't long before this trustworthy friend left Willie and went to the battlefield. To comfort the sad Willie, his mother gave him a little dog named Skip. Skip was smart and obedient. With its help, Willie gradually opened his heart and made a group of friends. Dink returned but was accused of deserting. Willie invited Dink to his rugby game, but the latter broke his promise. Furious, Willie vented his anger on Skip, which directly led to Skip's running away from home. It was then that Willie realized how important Skip was to him. He was determined to find it and apologize to it.[Collapse]
