Max, the boy with the big imagination, is back and ready to make you laugh out loud!
One of DJ's books is about to be made into a film and while she is busy working on the screenplay, Max decides to give writing his own play a go, with DJ's help of course. But then Max's mum meets someone and suddenly Max is no longer the only man in her life. It seems like everyone is happy about it, except for Max.
