Check out what happened in Dear Wendy!
In the quaint coal mining town of Electric Park, West Virginia, a self-proclaimed teenage pacifist named Dick (no relation) discovers what he believes to be a harmless toy gun. His newfound fascination is sparked when a coworker enlightens him that the antique firearm is, in fact, functional. As Dick and his acquaintance develop an unlikely friendship centered around recreational target shooting and firearms history, they begin to attract like-minded disaffected teens who share their passion for vintage weaponry. They dub themselves "the Dandies," adopting an eccentric, time-warp style of dressing and speaking that replaces modern vernacular with antiquated phrases - substituting the term "killing" with "loving," for instance. Dick becomes increasingly enamored with his gun, christening it "Wendy" and crafting romantic letters to his trusted companion.
As the Dandies' peculiar habits and rituals unfold, they transform their antique firearms into elaborate props, assigning them personas and backstories, playing games with them, and staging target practice in an abandoned mining shaft they've repurposed as their own Temple. They carry their guns at all times, yet take great care to refrain from showcasing them publicly.
Dick's childhood nanny, Clarabelle, introduces him to her troubled grandson Sebastian, a young African-American man from out of town who is serving probation for a weapons-related offense. Electric Park's Sheriff Krugby appoints Dick as an informal probation officer for Sebastian, citing his exemplary character as the reason. Dick extends an olive branch, allowing Sebastian to break probation and inviting him to join the Dandies, but only if he adheres to their idiosyncratic rules.
Sebastian's arrival in town is marked by the presentation of a mysterious box containing an assortment of guns. As tensions simmer, one of the group's members breaks a cardinal rule by firing another's gun, leading Susan, the lone female member, to develop a fascination with Sebastian. Dick, however, becomes increasingly perturbed by the changes Sebastian has brought to their tight-knit circle.
As the stakes escalate, Sebastian confides in Dick that his grandmother, Clarabelle, is too intimidated by the specter of gang violence to venture forth and visit her cousin. In a bold move, Dick proposes that the Dandies escort her to her destination, providing a protective entourage for the elderly woman. However, their goodwill gesture quickly turns awry when they encounter a deputy sheriff, leading to a scuffle that ends in tragedy as Clarabelle inadvertently shoots the officer.
In the aftermath of this chaotic encounter, the sheriff demands that the Dandies surrender Clarabelle, offering them leniency and permitting them to keep their firearms if they comply. Sensing a trap, the Dandies flee to the Temple, taking Clarabelle with them, just as a contingent of police officers converges on the scene. Despite being now wanted by the law, the Dandies decide to press on, treating this mission as a suicidal endeavor.
As Sebastian discovers Dick's final letter to Wendy, penned in code and concluding with the ominous message "And now, it's the time of the season for loving," he becomes increasingly agitated. Armed and wounded, he joins his comrades outside to confront the police officers armed with shotguns. The ensuing gunfight is brutal, leaving most of the Dandies gravely injured or worse, while Clarabelle falls prey to a ricocheting bullet that wounds her leg.
Despite his own injuries, Dick manages to guide Clarabelle to her cousin's doorstep, though he loses his trusty weapon, Wendy, in the chaos. Police officers encircle the house, surrounding it with an imposing presence. Meanwhile, Sebastian, still unscathed, remains hidden outside, where he spots Wendy lying abandoned on the street. Seizing the moment, he snatches up the gun and rushes into Clarabelle's cousin's home, ultimately turning his weapon on Dick in a shocking betrayal.
As chaos erupts within the building, police officers stationed on the rooftop across the street unleash a hail of gunfire upon the structure, further escalating the already precarious situation.
