[5] Claire (Kristin Wallace) is a kind-hearted twenty-something who shares a deeply sheltered life with her loving but agoraphobic mother, Henrietta (Saxon Trainor), and discovers a much bigger world awaits her during a road trip to a youth retreat.
Along the way, Claire is befriended by Danielle (Lyndsy Fonseca), an angry but well-intentioned girl who lives nearby with her father, Pastor Paul (Mackenzie Astin).
Determined to attend the retreat sponsored by Danielle's father, and with no notice to their parents or planning, they set out on a road trip in Claire's mother's barely functioning car.
Later, having made up and giddy with wine they stumble upon a rave, hosted by Artemis (Xander Berkeley) whose partner (Eric Roberts), Hal, we find out later, is Claire's biological father.
Chaos ensues as Claire's mother and Danielle's father descend on Hal's to find both girls recovering from a long night of partying.
