When Jade Fulton and Ethan Garrett, the two most mismatched seniors at Walt Whitman High School, find themselves locked in an aerobics room overnight, their confinement forces them to push past the labels they've given each other. Amid hours of arguing, philosophizing, and silly game playing, Ethan and Jade learn there's a lot more to the other person than meets the eye. But after their night in confinement, they return to their comfort zones-Ethan's football prowess and long-standing romance with the school beauty, and Jade's cerebral pursuits and close friendship with the quirky Gia. Still, they find themselves inexorably pulled back to the connection they formed that night, a bond they increasingly value as Jade struggles with her dad's cancer diagnosis and Ethan tries to distance himself from his alcoholic father.
