Bespectacled high school nerd Brendan Frye (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) sits contemplating the sprawled body of his ex-girlfriend Emily (Emilie de Ravin). Two days before, Emily had contacted him for help by leaving a note in his locker. On the phone she says everything is fine but then screams and vanishes. As a genius and an outsider in the teenage world tough-talking Brendan prefers to avoid the high school elite but breaks his isolation in order to find the girl he still loves. He teams up with computer geek the Brain (Matt O'Leary) to investigate the social world of the school and uncovers a slimy mess of secrets. Help comes from cheerleader Kara (Meagan Good), as Brendan dallies with femme fatale Laura (Nora Zehetner) and walks a tightrope doing part-time investigative work for Assistant Principal Trueman (Richard Rountree). The clues reveal that Emily was hanging out with the cool kids and got herself into something bad. Everything leads to the Pin (Lukas Haas), the leader of the juvenile underworld whose Mom bakes great cookies but who also has a big problem. He’s missing a brick of heroin and his gang of young criminals is falling apart.
