Plot – Junior is a 7-year-old boy who lives in an orphanage run by nuns. There are a lot of couples who want to adopt him, but the problem is that he is a troublemaker and after a few days of custody, the foster parents always take him back. Florence and Ben try anyway: after a while, Junior sets fire to his room, destroys a supermarket, teaches swears to the parrot, fights with the cat and ruins a girl’s party. However, Ben finds a way into the kid’s heart.
