Mindy's life takes an unexpected turn when she moves to her dad's quaint hometown in Illinois. Starting at a new school without any friends is challenging enough, but the real surprise is that the school is housed in an abandoned motel.

Her opportunity to connect with others arises during the library's carnival fundraiser, where she partners with Charlie, one of the most popular boys in school. While Charlie suggests a simple cupcake booth, Mindy dreams bigger. She's determined to create an epic game for the school carnival, even if it means taking a few risks.
