The Last Day of Summer is a 2007 American fantasy comedy television film directed by Blair Treu and written by Kent Pierce.
They are starting middle school in two days, warned by Luke's older sister Diana of the dangers of junior high (especially the possibility that Luke's friends might leave him behind for the "cooler crowd") and intimidated by the looming presence of the bully, Meat, who constantly threatens incoming sixth graders.
Immediately afterward, and moments before their band is scheduled to perform onstage at the carnival, he is knocked unconscious by a large wooden board while returning a Frisbee.
He is sent back to that morning over and over again moments before Steel Monkey's performance every single day, always getting knocked unconscious by some different, unforeseeable method, such as a football, a skateboard, and even a falling meteor.
Worrying more about Diana's warning, fearing he may be left behind soon, Luke focuses less on his friends and more on the skate park, where the "cool" people are.
After the repeated day has accumulated over several months, Luke finally has developed enough skill that he beats Gus at the Pound tryout, and his friends are shocked when he abandons them to eagerly join the impressed members of the skate group.
Luke, surprised that The Pound is nothing like his real friends and realizing maybe he isn't cut out for the group, returns to the carnival to find them.
Luke swears he's been repeating the same day, and he manages convince a skeptical Diana by taking her to the carnival and pointing out numerous random events before they occur.
She tells him that maybe the reason he's stuck is because he needs to change his day for the better; when his crush Alice walks by and says hi to him, Diana smiles at Luke, suggesting he begin there.
However, nothing happens to him; unexpectedly, he makes it to the talent show, and though their introduction is shaky, Diana encourages Luke on; Snake joins in, and soon the crowd is cheering them on.
