Shunned at school as a freak, Sam finds a chance to redeem herself in the eyes of the student body when the biology teacher is suspiciously gnawed to death by the freshman class goldfish. As Sam gathers clues, she also acquires a circle of friends who will not only assist her in solving the mystery -- they'll help her figure out how to survive high school.
