When Cheryl, a popular white girl consoles Kwame and plans to go to the dance with him, a conflict based on race, and popularity ensues before there's a resolution, when to Nia's chagrin, her best friend, Tonya, agrees to double-date with Kwame, Cheryl, and Kwame's best friend, Nelson, challenging the popular crowd to examine its priorities and social prejudices.
