When Bridgette Summers moves to Wawanakwa City, she is ready to develop a life of her own as she rents an apartment in the said city. However, her opinion of the majestic city is changed when she learns of a year old case concerning a missing criminal: Duncan Abraham. Elsewhere in the city, Katie Stars applys for an intership at McLean Enterprises, owned by the rich and powerful Chris McLean. She is surprised when she realizes that she is awarded the job with no hesitation from Chris. Chris however, has ulterior motives with his secretary, Courtney Jones, tagging along. Meanwhile, a mysterious Goth named Gwen struggles to work under her boss' (Heather Carmicheal) harsh rule.

Plot
The episode opens up with Bridgette Summers standing outside her house, packing boxes full of her posessions into her Jeep while her mother looks on. Mrs. Summers shares her concerns for her daughter as she continues to talk. Bridgette assures her that she will be fine, stating that she is an adult and can look after herself. Mrs. Summers sighs, and then tells her that she needs to get going. Bridgette says good-bye to her mother, and then soon leaves her old town, and mother, behind as she heads towards her new destination.

McLean Enterprises is shown next, being the main business in Wawanakwa City, as it is run by the prestigious Chris McLean. In the waiting room, Katie Stars is introduced as a hopeful young candidate for the new position being hired by McLean. She is then called up by McLean's secretary, Courtney Jones. As the two walk back to McLean's office, Courtney assures Katie on how to get the job. Katie suddenly becomes nervous, and is soon left alone, standing outside McLean's office door when she is invited in.

A mysterious young Goth named Gwen is then shown working at the Local Paint Shop. She is shown to have dropped yet another paint jar on the ground, causing it to spill. Her boss, Heather Carmichael, sneers at her from the main counter where she is busy talking with her boyfriend, Alejandro. As Gwen begins to clean up the mess, she is confronted by Heather, who blackmails her into taking her shift so she can go on a date with Alejandro. When Gwen objects, Heather threatens her by saying that if she doesn't, she'll be fired. Gwen sadly then agrees to taking the shift, while continuing to feel bad for herself.

Bridgette is then seen again being shown her new apartment by her landlord, Dawn. Dawn assures Bridgette that she'll be happy in Wawanakwa City, and that it is a very quiet town. She then goes on to say that it doesn't get much attention... anymore. When Bridgette questions this, Dawn mentions the Duncan Abraham case and then leaves, causing Bridgette to become terribly confused.

Back at McLean Enterprises, Katie is shown introducing herself to Chris. She is then shocked to see that Chris granted the job without even taking a look at her resume. Chris then tells her to show up at 9:00 the next morning, and then dismisses her. As soon as Katie leaves, Courtney walks into the room, and Chris opens up a bottle of wine, proclaiming that "everything is going exactly according to plan".
