Two college student roommates, interning at a local St. Louis High school are introduced as counselors observing different aspects of the class. Dillon, with the aid of longtime tenured teacher Neil Rowley, observes differences in clashing personalities between students Erin, the drama department class president, and Savannah the most popular student. With a quick glimpse of each and every student seriously fixed on the front of the class Mrs. Hialeah sets the tone with an emotionally driven statement to succeed. A former high school roommate of the two college students crashes on their couch as TEMPORARY placement. When Landon reluctantly challenges Bogroe to prove he is more responsible than in the past while in school, Bogroe takes exception and makes his couch proclamation.
