One Eight Seven Plot and Cast
After a Brooklyn student writes 187, the police code for homicide, in his textbook, teacher Trevor Garfield feels threatened, but the principal dismisses the incident. The same student later stabs him. Fifteen months on, physically and emotionally scarred, Trevor relocates to California and takes up substitute teaching. His new school proves as full of dangerously undisciplined students as his old one, including four Latin Americans and a European American who claims membership in the tagging gang K.O.S. (Kappin' Off Suckers), pushing him over the edge.
