- Plot : In a suburb populated by wealthy and liberal parents who want a
- bucolic life for themselves and their children, Wendy, Billie and
- Ann are seniors at the alternative private school; they spend all
- their time with fellow students John, Price and Robert. The six
- have been friends since elementary school and their friendship has
- become a six-person monogamous relationship. They swap sex
- partners each week; their loyalty is to the group, not to one
- person. The six friends don't want to survive high school - they
- want to transcend its pettiness. Their friendships are intense,
- especially between Billie and Wendy. After orientation, Wendy meets
- Sean, a new senior who moved from Chicago; he finds out about her
- "inner geek" and she quickly recognizes a kindred spirit. Soon
- their friendship becomes romantic and Wendy is torn between her
- genuine affection and desire for Sean, and her commitment and
- belief in the group. Wendy starts to test the boundaries of her vow
- to her friends, and Billie realizes that she is going to have to
- fight to keep her best friend; which shouldn't be a problem, since
- each of the teens has collected a box full of mementos from their
- sexual experience. If Wendy tries to leave, Billie can destroy her
- reputation and relationship in a heartbeat. While Wendy is trying
- to decide between Sean and her friends, Wendy's younger brother
- Nathan meets Sean's mother, Helen who is waiting a long three weeks
- to start a new job. Nathan develops a huge crush on her, and uses
- his considerable cooking skills to try and woo her. When Billie
- realizes that Wendy really might leave, she tests her - pushing
- Wendy to publicly ridicule Ryan, a girl who left the group last
- year along with her boyfriend, Aaron. Sean witnesses the brutal
- scene, where Ryan's past is used against her. Wendy is devastated
- that she allowed herself to be pushed around by Billie. Then Wendy
- spends another Saturday night with the group and she is unable to
- "cheat" on Sean; her hesitation is all that Billie needs to accuse
- her best friend. After the girls fight, Wendy takes out her
- frustration on a random couple who keep making out in front of her
- house. Ryan, hearing that Wendy is out of the group, tries to be
- friends, but Wendy doesn't like what Ryan has become - a subservient
- wet dishrag of a girlfriend. Sean and Wendy try to be a "normal"
- couple, but the group quickly tests the relationship: Billie puts
- the box of memorabilia in Sean's locker. Wendy claims she isn't
- scared, she knows that Sean loves her. Maybe so, but when he sees
- the photos that document a lifetime of sexual experimentation, he is
- fed up and offers an ultimatum - Wendy can burn the box, leave the
- group and be a normal girl, or they can break up. Wendy has gone from
- one ultimatum to another. When Wendy sees Billie being tortured for
- being alone by other students, she wants to comfort her friend.
- Billie invites Wendy back to the group; such is the depth of Billie's
- love for her. But Wendy makes a braver, and stronger decision - to be
- alone. The girls in the story - Wendy, Ryan, Billie - all must face
- the next chapter of their lives alone, and for the first time, at
- least Wendy sees the possibilities this offers.
