Definitivamente esto no era parte de sus planes, y peor aun. podria evitar que su misterioso deseo se cumpla!Es por ello que Charlie no hace mas que pensar en como regresar a Raleigh para estar con su familia, pero todo cambia cuando conoce a Huesito de la Suerte, un perrito callejero que se gana su corazon, y a Howard, la unica persona que le habla en su nueva escuela. Poco a poco, Charlie se dara cuenta de que, quizas, su mas grande deseo se puede cumplir en el lugar menos esperado.
