Plot


Best friends Lily, Chloe, Amelia, and Rebecca are at junior prom, where Chloe's brother Thomas shares a tender moment with Lily while discussing his upcoming move to college. As they are about to kiss, they are interrupted by their friends. On his way home from prom, Thomas is killed in a car crash.
A year later, the girls are in their final two weeks of high school. Chloe and Lily dream of attending college in New York City together, with the former attending NYU and the latter attending Columbia. Rebecca develops a crush on the school librarian, Mr. Bemis, while Amelia navigates her parents' divorce. Despite their challenges, the group decides to go to prom together.
While Lily is swamped with planning school celebrations, Chloe struggles with her grief. She is accepted to NYU, but contemplates going to UCSB instead to stay close to her family. Her friend Sam consoles her and asks her to prom, which she accepts.
Lily begins delegating responsibilities as Noah promposes to her via serenade, which she declines, yet they make out at a party afterwards. At another party, Chloe reveals her intention to attend UCSB, which upsets Lily. She retreats to a bedroom with Mike — whom she met earlier in the film — and he rapes her.
Lily confronts the girls for ditching her at the party and keeping Chloe's acceptance into NYU from her, and they reprimand her for her selfishness as they navigate their own struggles. She then complains to Noah over his ex's jealous comments, and he maintains he's solely interested in Lily, which she rebuffs and leaves him.
After her brother helps her realize her selfishness, Lily apologizes to the girls. It is revealed in a flashback that Thomas and Lily kissed and professed their mutual love at junior prom. She reconciles with Noah and the group celebrates.
Lily successfully gives her valedictorian speech at graduation, and her and Noah share a kiss. At their graduation party, Mr. Bemis introduces himself to Rebecca as "Immanuel", sharing a name with the philosopher they joked about at the beginning of the movie, and she introduces him to her parents. The girls enjoy one last joint together overlooking the city.
