Plot: 1993. Brandy Klark, who has just graduated at the top of her class at Merriwether High School in Boise, Idaho, has focused her entire existence on academic excellence at the expense of all else, this focus making her a proverbial goody-two-shoes, which is just fine especially with her conservative father, Judge George Klark. That focus also blinds her to that her friend, and science lab and study partner, Cameron Mitchell, has long mooned over her in a severe case of puppy love. That focus changes when Brandy has her first case of lust in spotting college guy Rusty Waters at what is her first keg party. In speaking to her sexually aggressive older sister Amber Klark - the two who generally do not get along in their differences - Brandy decides to try to lose her virginity before she heads off to college in the fall. In her academic mindset in wanting to make losing her virginity the best experience it can be, Brandy develops a to do list of other sexual activities before that final act on the list, losing her virginity to Rusty, with who she will have the opportunity in learning he is a coworker in her summer job as a lifeguard at a community outdoor swimming pool. Along with Amber, her more sexually experienced best friends Fiona and Wendy act as her official guides, with Brandy's mother, Jean Klark, who is more liberal than her husband, acting as an unofficial guide in solely wanting Brandy to have a safe yet enjoyable first experience whenever it may happen. Even with this help, Brandy may make many missteps along the way especially as she doesn't even know what several activities on the list entail in the euphemisms that Amber, Fiona and Wendy use. Who also factors into what happens is Cameron, who, regardless of knowing or not knowing what Brandy is up to, will want to be part of any sexual experience she has in his love for her.
Alternative Plot: It's 1993, and high-school valedictorian Brandy Klark (Aubrey Plaza) decides she needs to shed her uptight image before college. She puts together a list of all the activities -- including sex -- she missed in high school. When she soon realizes she is out of her depth, Brandy enlists the aid of her friends, older sister, and boss. Summer marches on, and members of the group realize that they will need plenty of imagination and open mindedness to complete her project before September.
