An eleven and a half year old boy sells Cancer Council products to raise money, having lost his dad to testicular cancer three-and-a-half years earlier.
His mum is dating again and the boy spends Saturdays with his grandpa. His grandpa's worried about the boy; he doesn't have many friends his age. There's a talent quest coming up, and the boy's grandpa thinks he should enter.
The boy shows him a Youtube video of new dance "the Melbourne Shuffle" and in doing so inadvertently introduces his grandpa to the internet. Needless to say, Grandpa is hooked.
A plan springs into action. The boy has dancing lessons with instructor TonyG and Grandpa joins in when he can. He promises to donate an absolute fortune to the Cancer Council if the boy wins.
The day of the contest draws ever closer. But why are the boy's grandpa and grandpa's friend Maddog saving up all their painkillers? And how come Grandpa has taken to wearing suits and a new fedora hat?
