In a day that pays homage to the great 80's movie Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Jessie and Maya go off schedule earning her a few weeks of dentition, and him a new friend. With a shared love of music and fast cars, Maya finds her self attracted to Jesse. However, the fact that she was just rejected by the guy she liked, and kicked out of the band she formed, it's hard to trust him. Even if he is "Jesse Scott".
