Tagline: Why run away from home when you can drive?
Plot: With mom abroad for a year with her new husband, Josh and Sam must stay with their remarried dad and two stepbrothers in Florida. The stepbrothers continually mock Sam, calling him a homosexual because he hates athletics -- especially football. When Josh and Sam fly back to their California home to pick up extra clothes, Sam tells Josh that he's not human, but a Strategically Altered Mutant (S.A.M.) wanted by the government. The only escape is to flee to Canada. Fortunately, their flight lands briefly in Texas, and the two take advantage of the stop to run away. While on the road, Josh and Sam learn that looking out for each other gets you farther than just looking out for yourself.
