JP enjoys the attention and the smiles he brings to others, and he believes that making people laugh is always a good thing.But as JP's confidence grows, his jokes begin to cause problems. Some jokes are told at the wrong time, and others hurt feelings instead of spreading joy. JP soon realizes that not everyone is laughing anymore.
