Plot
Drea Torres, a student at Rosehill Private School who's obsessed with getting into Yale. She's a scholarship student, the queen bee of a hive that includes Tara, Meghan, Elliot, and Montana. She is dating Max, the most popular guy at school who happens to be rich, white, and Cishet. Drea is said to be popular but is to be feared, and she has secret anxieties which are explored throughout the movie. She's a Mexican American who lives in a small house that she's ashamed of with her mother who works nearly all the time. But despite that she managed to claw her way to the top of the pecking order at a predominantly white, privileged high school despite being plagued by racial and class worries. At the start of the story, she's on top of the world. Teen Vogue even throws her a Gatsby-decadent party to celebrate her winning the magazine's Teen of the Year award.

Then somebody, assumed Max who was the one who convinced her to do it in the first place, leaks a Facetime video of Drea taking her clothes off for max. Everything Drea has achieved melts away, and she's left broken and mortified. Drea assumes Max leaked the video. Max denies it, but once senior year begins, he reminds everyone of the heroine's shame to secure his own position as the institution's most visible and influential student. Max also founds the Cis Hetero Men Championing Female Identifying Students League, an organization that brags about the "allyship" of its members but is mainly camouflage for Max and his bros to womanize without getting called out as misogynists.

Enter Eleanor, a gangly white lesbian in standard-issue Hollywood frump clothing who's still traumatized by an incident that occurred at summer camp years ago. Eleanor and Drea become unlikely friends, and Drea suggests swapping revenge plots. Drea's involves giving Eleanor a makeover to transform her into a sexy oddball newcomer, grab Max's attention, and draw her into his inner circle, where she can gain the trust and pick the brains of all the people who were complicit in Drea's downfall.

The headmistress of Rosehill, advises Drea to channel her anger rather than explode in rage, as she did while accusing Max of leaking the video. Despite the advice of the headmistress, Drea and Eleanor continue on with their plans to get back at Carissa and Max. While Drea plans her way into ruining Carissa's life she meet Russ at the school's communal garden, who unknowingly tells Drea about Carissa's shed. Soon their plots are set in to motion as Drea watching for an opportunity to steal Carissa's keys and Eleanor snoops around a party Drea helped her get invited to. Eventually Eleanor discovers that max is cheating on Tara but not before a little subtle flirting with Max's sister Gabbi. She unfortunately does not get the screenshots being stopped by Tara and max coming in and making out before they get into an argument about Tara missing Drea.

When Drea and Eleanor meet back up its to check out the shed Carissa's keys go to where she supposedly grows her "special crops". As they walk to the shed Eleanor updates Drea on all that she discovered and Drea fills her on why They're snooping in the schools greenhouse/shed. Inside they find she has Weed and Mushrooms growing on school property. Carissa is in charge of cooking the school feast with what she has grown in the garden and so Drea plots to put the hallucinogenic mushrooms in the food she prepares to get Carissa caught growing on school and give them time to download max's private messages with proof that he's cheating while he's high. This goes off without a hitch and the two friends revel in joy and the high of taking mushrooms as Max's files are downloaded and Carissa's greenhouse is raided.

They later go to Drea's house and have a meaningful talk before looking at Max's files. They reveal that Max has been doing far more cheating then they thought even back when he was still with Drea. Eleanor comforts her and they decide that releasing this information on valentines day will be the most impactful.
