When 16-year-old Jacey Jeffries (Danielle Panabaker), a model student and superior athlete, finds out that she's expecting, no one is more surprised than her overbearing mother, Terry (Mercedes Ruehl). After exploring all of her options, Jacey decides to keep the baby. Her mom agrees, but under one condition: She must keep the birth a secret.
Terry wants Jacey to have a normal teenage life, so she moves the family to a new town and insists on raising the newborn as her own son. Resentful at having to start over and live a complete lie, Jacey begins to experience a major meltdown. But when a persistent guidance counselor (Jane Krakowski) tries to befriend the troubled teen, it only leads to a whirlwind of chaos and a shocking outcome for both of them!
