Gary Hausman aspired to become a professional tennis player from an early age. But the ideal is beautiful and the reality is cruel. Gary, who was belittled by his father and brother, was repeatedly frustrated and finally vowed never to touch a tennis racket again. Now Gary finds a job as a janitor and handyman in a middle school. By chance, the neurotic Gary showed a pretty good tennis skill and was chosen by the tennis coach of the school to serve as the assistant coach of the team. Tudor died unexpectedly, and Gary and a rookie tennis teacher appointed by the principal jointly took the helm of the tennis team. Gary's biggest goal is to perfect Tudor's last wish to lead a tennis team that has been undervalued at school to the interstate finals. But to achieve the goal, it is far from enough to rely on a cavity of blood. The level of his players is uneven and the army is unmotivated, and Gary's rough way also brings trouble to the team. The tennis team is in danger of being disbanded unless they can get tickets to the finals. Can Gary and his team turn the tide and survive?
