Stephanie is with her family and friends inside
a bowling club.
It is her 14th birthday and she narrates about
how moving to the US from Australia was a
difficult step for her.
Being a foreing kid, everybody made fun of
her.
She further mentions that the ultimate goal
of her school life is to be popular.
As Steph is having fun with her friends, she
spots a popular guy named Blaine and immediately
gets hypnotized by him.
Unfortunately, he is with his arrogant and
egocentric girlfriend, Tiffany.
Despite this, Steph gathers up some courage
and approaches the duo to ask them if they’d
like to join her birthday party.
Sadly, Tiffany makes fun of the party and
takes Blaine away.
Frustrated with her life, Steph vows to herself
that she will become popular at any costs.

and becomes the leader of the cheerleading
group.
Now, she has a lot of friends and has even
hooked up with her dreamboy, Blaine.

is preparing to go to school and her best
friend, Seth is waiting for her downstairs.

Steph becomes emotional and decides to wear
it at the prom happening in a few days.
On the way to school, Steph comes across the
home of her idol, Dianna Russo, and stops.
Dianna was the prom queen of 95’ and has
been living the perfect life; beautiful body,
a great house and a handsome husband.
Steph envies their life but is hopeful that
one day, she and Blaine can replicate it.
After this, she discusses with Seth about
the upcoming prom and how much she despises
Tiffany.
Steph is quite confident of being crowned
the prom queen and she has already arranged
an after-prom party at her friend, Martha’s
lakehouse.
In class, Steph finds out that Tiffany is
also holding an after prom party and gets
jealous.
She immediately confronts her in the restroom
and the two start arguing.
Later, the cheer group, Bulldogettes, is getting
ready for a practice session in front of the
entire school.
Martha, being the equipment manager, tries
to instruct the group on how to do well but
Tiffany interrupts and bullies her.
This enrages Steph and she makes a mockery
out of Tiffany in front of the entire group.
After everyone is gone, a distraught Tiffany
starts plotting something with two of her
friends.
Soon, the performance begins and the group
starts dancing graciously.
Despite having their differences, Tiffany
and Steph also give their best and the audience
seems to be loving it.
Near the end of the performance, Steph leaps
in the air for her signature jump but unfortunately,
the two girls push the boy, who is supposed
to catch Steph.
As a result, she drops to the floor and the
screen fades to black.
The movie then cuts to 20 years in the future,
where Steph suddenly wakes up from her coma
in the hospital.
She notices several birthday presents near
her bed, some of which are for a ‘37 year
old.’
Confused, Steph leaves her room and ventures
outside.
She approaches the receptionist and asks her
if there’s been a mix-up in her room.
Right then, Steph sees her transformed self
in the mirror and passes out, leaving everyone
stunned.
Later, the doctor reveals to Steph that it
is 2022 and she had been in a coma for nearly
20 years.
Meanwhile, Jim and Martha arrive at the place.
They are overjoyed to see Steph back after
20 long years.
As Jim is hugging his daughter, the doctor
suggests he take it slow as Martha is still
a 17 year-old mentally, despite having the
body of a 37 year-old.
Following this, Jim and Martha decide to take
Steph home.
On the way back, Steph is taken aback to see
a smartphone, which she mistakes for a small
TV.
She is also shocked that some words that were
common in the past are too offensive to use
these days.
Martha then reveals to her that she is the
principal of Harding high school, the same
school they both attended.
Just then, Steph spots a grown up Blaine,
but surprisingly, he is at Dianna Russo’s
house.
Confused, Steph asks her dad to stop the car
but when he doesn’t comply, she jumps out
of it.
She then goes upto the house but gets shocked
to see Tiffany come out of it.
Tiffany expresses her delight at having her
friend back, and also reveals that she got
married to Blaine and her parents bought the
house for her as a gift.
Despite this, Steph still wants to meet Blaine
but Tiffany makes an excuse and tells her
to come later.
An annoyed Steph reaches home but as soon
as she enters her room, she gets emotional
to find out that Jim has preserved all her
belongings.
At night, someone knocks on the door but when
Steph goes out, she finds no one around.
Instead, she finds a book, which was sent
by her best friend, Seth.
She opens it and finds several pictures of
her at school.
This makes her emotional and she remembers
her late mother, who always believed that
she could do something big.
With this, she gets renewed motivation and
vows to herself that she will again become
popular.
The next morning, Steph approaches Martha
as she is about to leave for school.
She then reveals her desire to join Harding
High School and complete her studies.
Martha tries her best to convince her friend
that she is too old for it, but the latter
is adamant in her decision.
Finally, with no choice left, Martha agrees
to let Steph join school again.
In the next scene, Steph gets ready for her
first day at school after 20 years and leaves
the house full of confidence.
However, on reaching, she finds that the place
has changed a lot.

so that it doesn’t offend anyone.
For instance, the prom winners list is replaced
by a piece of art, because it sends the ‘wrong
message’.
Right then, Steph bumps into Seth, and the
two are delighted to see one another.
Turns out that Seth is the librarian in the
same school.
After a bit of small talk, the two head their
ways, but not before promising to catch up
soon.

in her office and requests to join the Bulldogettes
cheer group again.

so that she can become popular and ultimately,
win the prize of prom queen.

have a prom queen anymore.

not yet ready to give up on her dream so quickly.
She heads to the cafeteria with a petition
paper to bring prom queen back.
There, she meets three students, Janet, Yaz
and Neil, who are immediately impressed by
her persona.
Steph hands them the petition, and the three
gladly sign it.
However, she quickly learns that no one else
would sign it, unless the most popular kid
in school, Bri Luvs does it first.
Turns out that Bri is a social media influencer,
who has more than 3 million followers on Instagram.
She has a popular boyfriend, Lance, and the
two are regarded as ‘untouchables’ in
school.
Soon, Bri approaches the group and when Steph
asks her to sign the petition, she denies,
claiming that she is ‘paper free’.
Before leaving, she mentions to Steph that
she’s Tiffany’s daughter, which surprises
the former.

finds out that Martha is the cheer group coach.

of sexy dancing, as it was ‘offensive’
to some students.

announcing that the prom tickets will cost
a massive $93.

impressed by it.
The next morning, when Steph wakes up, she
finds out that her dancing video has gone
viral and now she has a lot of followers on
Instagram.

more fun than going to Martha’s school.

where the former expresses her desire to become
the prom queen.

why the goal is extra important in her life.

partner and support her.

requesti, the school is reinstating the election
for king and queen at prom.
This delights Steph and her group, and they
start planning for the event.
However, Steph soon finds out that Bri will
be pitted against her for the crown.
In class, all the students except Steph get
an invitation from Tiffany for an after-prom
party.

own after-prom party.

closet for something.
After a while, she finds the keys to Martha’s
lakehouse, goes live on instagram, and announces
that she’s hosting a free party after she
wins the prom.

arrived and Seth is waiting for Steph to get
ready.
There, he has an awkward conversation with
Jim, who suggests he carry protection.
Just then, Steph arrives, wearing her late
mother’s dress.
Seth is stunned by her beauty and they click
a lot of pictures before leaving.
At the prom, Steph spots Tiffany at the voting
booth, and starts taunting her.
She even votes for Bri, saying that she’s
confident that she’ll win.
After this, she goes outside to start a live
stream but bumps into Blaine.
Blaine starts seducing her, but as Steph is
trying to push him away, Seth catches them
in action.
He walks out of the place disappointed, despite
Steph trying to stop him.
In the meantime, the prom results are announced.
Lance is crowned the prom King as expected.

and perform a wonderful dance, impressing
everyone there.
After the event, the students head to Steph’s
after-prom party.
At the lakehouse, everyone enjoys themselves
in the wildest way possible.

as she is still furious at Steph for ruining
her plans.
In no time, the cops arrive, forcing the students
to flee from the place.
Martha also arrives and berates Steph for
putting the school’s image in jeopardy.
She then storms away from the place along
with Seth, leaving Steph alone and sad.
With no one to drop her home, Steph takes
a Lyft but gets shocked to find out that Dianna
Russo is the driver.
Turns out that Dianna lost her husband, wealth
and fame once she turned 30.
She mentions her regrets for being obsessed
with popularity, when she could have studied
hard and become something.
Hearing this, Steph realizes her mistakes
and when she reaches home, she rips out all
her posters.
The next morning, a distraught Steph heads
to the kitchen but Jim cheers her up by talking
about the importance of family and friends.
The speech convinces Steph to apologize to
Martha and Seth, and this is when she goes
live, as shown at the start of the movie.
She gives a heartfelt apology, revealing that
Seth and Martha were only the ones who supported
her, when she was new in the country.
After the stream is over, Tiffany surprisingly
arrives outside and issues an apology of her
own, for all the troubles she has given to
Steph.
Although unusual, Steph accepts the apology
and the two reconcile.

ceremony.
All the students are called upon stage and
when it’s Steph’s turn, she expresses
her gratitude for having a friend like Martha.
