Between promising Vijay that he'll compete in the school talent show and promising Dave that he'll try out for the basketball team, Derek Jeter has a lot he's trying to juggle. A commitment is a commitment, and Derek is determined to work hard and try his best, but he worries he might be in over his head and fears he's going to let his friends or himself down. How can Derek do it all?
