The story is set in the 1980s in America, at a private high school in the suburbs of Detroit, featuring two types of students: misfits and nerds. The misfits are idle troublemakers, while the nerds are weak and timid, focused solely on their studies. Lindsay (played by Linda Cardellini) excels academically but does not want to be classified as a 'nerd,' so she intentionally befriends a group of misfits. Her brother, Sam (played by John Francis Daley), is a complete nerd; not only is he weak, but he also has a group of equally timid nerd friends. Students from all walks of life must confront their own growing pains. Lindsay faces dual discipline from both family and school every day, while Sam endures harassment from school bullies. This is a true story about growing up, featuring rebellious misfits and quirky nerds, their lives unfolding in every high school, reflecting the youth of every individual.
