At school, the Plastics gather in the student lounge, expressing their boredom with both school and life. Heather suggests hosting an early Christmas house party. Angel praises her idea, calling her "surreally iconic," and shares a Snapchat post inviting everyone to the party at his house that night. Meanwhile, in gym class, Betty and Edward flirt, with Martin observing them from afar. After class, Martin approaches Betty about her closeness to Edward. She deceives him, claiming Edward is gay and her gay best friend. Martin accepts this explanation, kisses her, and rushes off to join his friends. In Urban Legends class, the discussion revolves around horror movie clichés, with Angel sharing extensive insights on the genre. When the bell rings, the Plastics regroup in the hallway to discuss the party and their shopping plans. Betty expresses her reluctance to attend, citing her discomfort with Heather's new friends. Kelly responds assertively, pointing out that Betty is the real issue since Heather continues to communicate with them. Marie holds Betty responsible for damaging their friendship, prompting her and Kelly to leave. Meanwhile, the Plastics cruise down the street, enjoying Y2K music and the excitement of heading to the mall. Upon arrival, they park and enter the mall to shop for party supplies. A montage showcases their fun as they gather items, and once finished, they return to their car and drive back to Angel's house. Betty arrives home and enters her room, where she spots a picture of herself with Heather, bringing a smile to her face. In the bathroom, Eugene gazes at his reflection, drugs laid out on the sink, as he quietly resolves to get clean for Angel. After taking a deep breath, he flushes the drugs down the toilet. The Plastics are then seen preparing for the party, and as night falls, guests begin to arrive. At Angel's house party, Angel and Heather are dancing joyfully on the dance floor. Betty walks in, notices Heather and Angel together, and feels a pang of jealousy, prompting her to take a seat. Across from her, Kelly engages in conversation with Benjamin, who is seated beside her. They eventually form a friendship, but when Betty sees Edward, she approaches him only to be interrupted by Martin, who kisses her. She reciprocates the kiss but hesitates to join Edward, prompting Martin to push her away as he heads over to Kelly and Benjamin. Martin insists that Benjamin take some shots with him, leading Benjamin to stand up and tell Kelly he'll see her later, to which she responds with a smile. Marie notices this interaction and approaches Kelly, suggesting she knows about her feelings for Benjamin. Kelly attempts to deny it but ultimately cannot. Meanwhile, Rose confides in Angel about her desire for intimacy, and Angel suggests they use the guest room. He then escorts Rose and Joseph to the guest room and locks the door behind them, allowing them to engage in sexual activity. Betty and Heather finally reconnect and share updates on their lives. Martin and his friends leap into the pool, while Angel invites Heather to the dance floor. Although she initially considers joining, Betty decides against it, prompting Heather to return to the dance floor to dance with Angel. Carolyn notices Kelly sitting and eating chips, prompting her to invite Kelly to follow her. They make their way to the bathroom, where Carolyn produces some molly. Initially hesitant, Kelly eventually agrees to try it alongside Carolyn after some encouragement. Once they both sniff the molly, laughter ensues. Eugene arrives, and Angel rushes into his arms, leading them to his room. Meanwhile, Heather takes Marie by the hand, and they begin dancing on the floor. Angel makes a bold move on Eugene, expressing her willingness to be intimate, to which Eugene consents, and they engage in sexual activity. Afterward, they dress and head downstairs. Edward gestures for Betty to follow him, and they find themselves in Angel's bedroom, discussing their relationship. Kelly calls out to Heather and Marie, who then join her in the bathroom to partake in molly. Meanwhile, Betty and Edward share a passionate kiss, nearing the point of undressing, but Betty pauses, feeling uncertain. Edward encourages her to close her eyes and relax. He engages in intimate acts with her. Heather suggests inviting Betty, to which Carolyn agrees, prompting Heather to search for Betty around the house. Meanwhile, Angel and Eugene are seen smoking on the stairs, and when Heather inquires about Betty, they both respond negatively. As Heather continues her search, Betty and Edward begin to engage in sexual activity. Rose takes to the dance floor, captivating the crowd with her moves. Ashley joins Heather in her quest to find Betty, and they check various rooms until they arrive at Angel's room. Heather opens the door and discovers Betty and Edward in the midst of their encounter. Overwhelmed, Heather begins to cry, and Ashley hands her phone to Heather, suggesting they capture the moment for some "karma." Heather takes the phone as Ashley exits and closes the door behind them. While recording the scene, Heather is in disbelief and tears. Martin reenters the house, looking for Betty, while Ashley joins Rose on the dance floor to continue dancing. From a distance, Ashley notices Martin inquiring about Betty's whereabouts. She approaches him and reveals that Betty is in the bedroom, prompting Martin to head upstairs. Meanwhile, Carolyn, Kelly, and Marie exit the bathroom. Upon entering Angel's room, Martin discovers Edward in a compromising position with Betty. Shocked, he exclaims, "What the hell?" which startles both Edward and Heather, causing Heather to hide under the bed. Martin confronts Edward, initiating a physical altercation while both are unclothed. Betty attempts to intervene, and in the chaos, Heather seizes the opportunity to escape the room and return downstairs. Ashley retrieves her phone, and Heather recounts the incident to the group, just as Angel approaches from behind. Angel proposes an idea, takes Ashley's phone, and airdrops the video to everyone at the party. The airdrop notification reaches all, including Martin, Betty, and Edward. As Martin watches the video on his phone, Betty glances at him. Seizing the moment, Edward hastily gathers his clothes and exits, but in the midst of the confusion, Martin strikes Betty in the face before fleeing the house. Angel storms into his room and forcefully ejects Betty. In a panic, Betty snatches her clothes and flees the house in the nude, while onlookers capture the moment, subjecting her to public humiliation. A few days later, the Plastics are seen printing pages from the burn book, addressing the camera with the phrase, "It's time." They then roam the school, distributing the printed burn book pages, which incites chaos as students begin to clash, resulting in a massive brawl. The Plastics observe the turmoil from the top of the stairs, looking down at the chaos they have instigated.
