CGiii Comment

Michael thought he had an ordinary life - staying to himself and masturbating to classical paintings of famous, historical women. That is until his mom walked in mid-jerk to the shock of her life. Cut to psychologists office where shrink and mom team up in shaming Michael into becoming "normal". With only the support from the black sheep of the family, his handsomely gay older brother Rick, Michael starts to contemplate what is normal in society, all while being bolder in approaching the nerdy and shy girl in his Shakespeare drama club. After being forced to perform a piece from Hamlet with the blond bimbo Michael's mother desires for him, he finally takes a stand for himself and chases after Caroline, telling her how he really feels.
