When life is funny, make some jokes about it. Billy Plimpton has a big dream: to become a famous comedian when he grows up. He already knows a lot of jokes, but thinks he has one big problem standing in his way: his stutter. At first, Billy thinks the best way to deal with this is to . . . never say a word. That way, the kids in his new school won’t hear him stammer. But soon he finds out this is NOT the best way to deal with things. (For one thing, it’s very hard to tell a joke without getting a word out.) As Billy makes his way toward the spotlight, a lot of funny things (and some less funny things) happen to him. In the end, the whole school will know -- If you think you can hold Billy Plimpton back, be warned: The joke will soon be on you!

Cured is truly a story about the power of forgiveness. In 1962 in Choctaw County, Alabama, Carl Ray an 18-year-old black man was questioned by an older white man; but when responding, he failed to address the man as sir as was then customary when speaking to white men. The man severely beat him for being disrespectful. Still enraged, the man later showed up at Rays home, and shot his father eight times on his front porch steps; murdered him in cold blood as the terrified youth looked on helplessly. During the farce of a murder trial that followed, the white mans lawyers blamed Ray for causing his own father's death because he had failed to be respectful. The man was charged with second degree manslaughter. However, he never served a day in prison for the murder. Ray was burdened with the guilt of causing his father's murder; his life would never be the same. In 1984, he was released from his self made prison of guilt when he forgave his fathers murderer. Ray attributes the act of forgiving the man to have been his own life saver.

Calvin is having a rough week. His plane is late, a billboard nearly slices him in two, a train almost runs him over, and he completely destroys the property of a technology giant. As if that wasn’t enough, he is now facing a man holding a gun to his face. All of this because Calvin thought he heard God tell him to “save my people.” Of all places, he heard it while he was in the airport restroom. Detective Tommy Ray’s investigation will lead him to cross paths with Calvin, pranksters Jerry and Ben, and Janiyah, a high school student who also is hearing voices. As their stories begin to overlap, the question begins to form: Is this just the result of a coincidence and a great prank, or is this happening for a reason?
