An off-screen narrator tells some facts about alcohol, its consumption, its effect on the human brain and the rationale for having a legal age restriction for its consumption. Despite some positive effects of alcohol when consumed responsibly, the narrator also dispels the myth that many teens have that alcohol makes them appear older to others.
