In this modern adaptation set in the digital age, the story follows April, a bright and independent teenager who moves to a new city with her family. Starting at a new school, she quickly learns the complexities of high school hierarchies and the harsh reality of social media's influence on reputations. Eager to fit in, April finds herself drawn to a group known as The Plastics, the undisputed rulers of the school's social scene. Led by the charismatic and cunning Fiona, The Plastics take April under their wing, introducing her to a world of popularity, power, and privilege. However, April's initial excitement soon fades as she witnesses the toxic dynamics and backstabbing that underpin The Plastics' reign.

As April becomes more entrenched in The Plastics' world, she begins to lose sight of her own values and the friends she left behind. The allure of being one of the popular girls starts to wane as April sees the real cost of belonging to such a group. Torn between her newfound status and staying true to herself, April faces a series of challenges that test her integrity, friendships, and self-identity. The pressure to maintain her place at the top of the social ladder leads to a cascade of events that force April to make difficult decisions about who she wants to be and what truly matters in the face of peer pressure and societal expectations.
