Azi, a genius and BLM campaign leader, RJ, a non binary pathological lair, Vinny, a fuckboy extraordinario, and saint, a pansexual narcissist, end up at the top of the social hierarchy for their senior year. while it's hard to maintain social standards, it becomes even harder when you're not out of the closet, struggling to make ends meet at home, dealing with a drunkard for a father and lying about your past.
