Jeffy, a boy with a tendency to get bullied, receives a new shirt from his mom with a turtle on it that says "Totally Cool". However, he gets mocked by his classmates for wearing it. To avoid being bullied, Jeffy decides to become a bully himself and starts picking on others.
When his parents try to intervene, a police officer who used to be bullied in high school shares his own experiences. The officer's methods to deal with bullies, however, are not helpful.
