Synopsis

Old boarding school chums Jay Gordon and Walter Smitty Smith reunite for a cross-country road trip after a long estrangement. Jay, in particular, has a story to tell, and uses the open road to mend the fences of their friendship and explain his conspicuous absence from Smitty s wedding three years earlier.Having reasonably matured into successful thirty somethings, they now live on opposite coasts, but through an old school journey they revisit the lighthearted mischief of a bygone era. The story unfolds on the highway inside a Range Rover Sport, with the nostalgic sounds of 80s rock permeating from Jay s iPod; Axl, his loyal basset hound, nestling comfortably in the back seat. Although the road trip itself becomes a major player presenting its three travelers with obstacles and adventures to deal with at its core, Only the Names Have Changed is primarily a flashback narrative that chronicles the lives of Jay Gordon and Madison Horn, a troubled girl with whom Jay has amassed a * of implausible stories.
