Wesley, a teenager, demands payment for doing his household chores, claiming that work without pay is slavery. His parents, tired of his attitude, agree to pay him for his chores but teach him a valuable lesson. Wesley soon finds himself paying for everything, including meals, clothes, and rides to school.\n
