"Payback Time" is a story centered around Mitch, Kimi and Angel and set in Seattle. When Angel Marichal arrives to Lincoln High, he seems to have no past. Even though he's a great football player, he doesn't show his abilities on the field as much as he could. Coach McNulty would hide his statistics and would change his jersey number every game.
Mitch, senior and sports reporter for the "Lincoln Light" and Kimi, photographer, start investigating about Angel. At first, they think it's an undercover policeman who is looking for drug dealers at the high school. They soon discover that Angel used to live in Philadelphia, he is a witness to a murder and needs to be protected by a gang who is looking for him. The Lincoln High football team, through ups and downs, makes it to the State championship final and wins the game with a great performance by Angel Marichal. After that game, nobody heard about him anymore. |
