Sometimes life can take an unexpected turn for the worst. Sometimes even for the better. But what some people don't know is that change can sometimes bring out the best in people who choose to embrace it. Lauren Sanford is one of those people. 

At only twenty years old, she never expected to find herself in the middle a quarter-life crisis. She has been incredibly miserable, having to deal with her boyfriend of 10 months having an affair with her cousin, as well as taking college courses that don't seem to motivate her one bit... the worst of all was the passing of her beloved grandmother.    
After a whole month of seclusion, her best friend decides that she needs a fresh start. And so a week later they set off for a two week holiday in Brisbane, Australia. 

As she sets out on a journey of self-discovery, what she encounters next is bound to be an experience of a life time.

Then he gets word that his cat, Bernie, just died and he can collect him and bring him home! Geoff and Naomi hurry to get Bernie only to discover that, due to a clerical error, their cat has been lost. With the hunt for Bernie giving new purpose to Geoff's un-life, he and Naomi begin a quest to get back their cat. Battling skeleton pirates, climbing the sky ladder and facing off against the villain who took Bernie, Geoff is determined to find his purpose - or die a second time trying!
