Brandy is minding her own business when a girl stumbles and collapses against her car. She gets rushed to the hospital & late dies with no identity as a homeless teen. Brandy is heartbroken and approached by another homeless girl Crystal who's friend Star is missing. Delving into the underworld of homeless and throw away teens is a subculture Brandy knows nothing about. Alphonso and Nick step into help as Brandy is threatened by pimps and street punks. Finding more than she bargained for in her search for Star has Brandy on a deadly path that uncovers and links dead teens apparently dying of overdoses. Nothing is what is seems as she gets in deep. In between all of the investigating she needs to pull off a baby shower for Fran who is so wanting to pop her baby out, examine her relationship with Nick, & comes to terms with Bobby. All in a days work if she lives that long
