Movie description:
Ardal Travis is in love. There’s just one problem. He’s an 8 year old schoolboy and the object of his affection is his Second Class teacher, Miss Purdy. But when her boyfriend arrives on the scene Ardal is heartbroken. His reaction, though, is a little unexpected. He challenges Miss Purdy’s boyfriend to a duel ... to the death ...
Eight year old Ardal Travis has a crush on his second grade teacher Ms. Purdy. He demonstrates his affections by giving her a toy ring. While shopping with his mother Ardal sees Ms. Purdy who happily explains that she has just been proposed to by her boyfriend Pierce and is engaged to be married. Pierce appears to be a jerk. He refuses to take Ms. Purdy for lunch to celebrate the hour old engagement, instead insisting on going home to watch football.
Ardal sees his dad put a gun carefully in the closet; he stares into the closet contemplating his options. Ardal confronts Pierce while he is impatiently waiting for Ms. Purdy outside of the school. Ardal challenges Pierce to a duel to the death, which Pierce mockingly accepts. The next day Ardal meets Pierce in the school yard and pulls the gun on him. Pierce at first believes it is a toy, but Ardal insists it is not. Ms. Purdy attempts to intervene but Ardal refuses to back down. Pierce, reduced to a crying mess, insists that he never loved Ms. Purdy but only proposed to her to »shut her up«. Ardal shoots Pierce and he falls to the ground.
It is revealed that the gun was a toy after all that Ardal’s father was saving in the closet until his birthday. Ms. Purdy angrily calls off the engagement and breaks up with Pierce. She walks Ardal home agreeing to »keep this between ourselves«. Ardal announces his crush is over but that Ms. Purdy deserves someone who can give her everything she wants.
