Melissa, the girl Bingo loves, has moved to the end of the world: Bixby, Oklahoma. Cici, a big blonde with a big crush, is moving in on Bingo. Billy "Worm Brain" Wentworth is stuck on Cici - and on getting Bingo to transform him from Rambo to Romeo. Life as a heartbreaker is hard...but leave it to Bingo, the master of the mixed-sex conversation, to translate the language of love.
