Sensitive preteen Franny (Trini Alvarado), despondent about her parents' collapsing marriage, finds a friend in Jamie (Jeremy Levy), who’s been there, done that, and sets about showing Franny the upside of being kids from broken homes. With Mom (Kathryn Walker) and Dad (John Lithgow) distracted by their own affairs, Franny finagles a sleepover with Jamie that pulls their friendship — and their parents' attention -- in an unexpected direction.
