Responsibilities

Trent has a problem--his room! While heading home to clean it up, Trent, Lily and Haley stumble on the perfect park area for their hideout, except it`s littered with trash! After cleaning his room, Trent decides that it`s everyone`s responsibility to keep the park clean because everyone uses it.
