This lie spirals out of control when it is overheard by a prudish classmate, Marianne Bryant (Amanda Bynes), leading to a series of events that change Olive’s life.
Instead of shying away from the rumors, Olive decides to embrace her newfound reputation as the school’s “tramp.” Inspired by a literary reference to ‘The Scarlet Letter,’ Olive starts wearing provocative clothing and allows boys to claim they’ve slept with her in exchange for gifts. As the rumors escalate, Olive faces backlash from her peers and the school’s church youth group.
Despite the challenges she faces, Olive finds support from unexpected sources, including her childhood crush and a few close friends. With a clever plan in mind, Olive stages a performance at a school rally to confront the lies and rumors surrounding her. In the end, Olive stands up for herself and asserts her independence, leaving a lasting impact on those around her.
