After an in-flight run-in with suspicious fellow passengers from fictional Gadakistan on their eighth-grade field trip to Washington, DC, Wyatt and his friends become embroiled in an international incident, the particulars of which they don't quite understand. Their over-the-top antics--combined with Barry's witty commentary through Wyatt's first-person narration--make for a zany story crafted more for outrageous humor than for believability.
