After leaving Kellin, Vic ends up in a confusing sort of relationship with his ex-boyfriend, Craig. Craig can’t seem to figure out what he wants, but when he kicks Vic to the curb, Vic decides to take matters into his own hands. One year later, he finds himself sober, but his dreams of being in a band are going down the drain. So when he hears about a band in Oregon that’s in need of a guitarist, he jumps at the opportunity—only to discover that the lead singer of this band is none other than Kellin Quinn.
