Travis was a Basketball player on his college team. When he starts a riot across from a gay rights rally, (he says they should all get aids and die), he is found guilty of a crime. The local judge sentences him to community service. He is going to help a single mother with her 4 year old son who was born HIV positive, because of a biological mother that was a drug addict. Travis meets William and instantly cares for the kid. The boy is a big basketball fan and watches games on the college network. Travis helps him out, and gets new things for the run down home. The biggest thing that helps cheer up the boy, is just him being there. He hosts an event at the school to raise money to help Ms. Smith and William but a phone call will force him to rush to the hospital, to watch the little angel die.
Helping to take care of William will force him to confront long forgotten feelings about his own brother who died of Aids at age 15, because of being raped during a school trip to the middle east. In the end, he learns how to change his attitude about gay people, and how to finally let go of his brother, who is up in heaven taking care of a new angel that just arrived from earth in the form of a small boy.
