- You know what they say
about change?

Actually, scratch that,
things are way too bonkers

right now for folksy wisdom.

Robbie and Leila got married
over the summer

because they just couldn't wait
to be husband and wife,

and now they're living with us.

Mom is pregnant,
Piper moved to Paris,

I started a band
with my best friends,

and now I'm about to start
my senior year.

Ugh, the decisions
I make this year will define

the rest of my life.

I know I always say that
the stakes are high but...

this time I really mean it.

- How could we not have any jam?
We--

- Hey guys, can you help me make
a decision?

- Yeah, no, we had
in-bacon-credible like
yesterday.

- Guys.
- Yeah, but where did it go?

- Guys!
- Mm-hmm.

- Headband or necklace?
- Headband.

- Necklace.

Yeah, the first day of school
nervous energy.

Can't say I miss it.
- Ugh, I know,

it's my senior year.
But I still have so much to do.

Like, I've got the band, and
I'm trying to find a new cause,

and then there's the whole
figuring out college thing.

- Uh-huh.
- I thought you had your heart
set on, uh,

music composition at NYU?

So you could conquer
New York with Amy.

- Yeah, well, that's the plan,
but I have to get in first.

- Um, which is why I say
that you should always have
a backup plan.

Or two.
- Boring.

I say live life dangerously.

- Ah! I can't believe my little
baby's gonna be a freshman!

Is that what you're wearing?

- That kind of seems like
a weird question considering
I am wearing it.

- Heather, it's your first day
of high school!

You've got a ketchup stain
on your shirt

and ripped jeans are against
the dress code.

Don't you want to make
a good first impression?

- No. I'm not you.
- Okay, well, look.

I know that you wanna
get on the football team so,

you might meet the coach today.
- Well, that doesn't really
matter

because all of my clothes
are either ripped or dirty.

I work hard and I play hard.
And I hate doing laundry.

- Lucky for you,
you've got an older sister

with a closet full of clothes

and a trick or two up
her sleeve.

- That's what I was afraid of.
- Alright, come on.

- No!
- Come on, let's go.

- Have fun!

♪ You and me run
to a different beat ♪

♪ We are brave, lead the way,
lead the way ♪

♪ Be the you inside ♪

♪ And watch the world
take flight ♪

♪ We are brave, lead the way,
lead the way ♪

(announcer): Attention all
students,

this is a reminder to pick up
your school agenda

in your homeroom by the end
of fourth period.

- Am I allowed to say
you look nice?

- Absolutely not.
- Okay.

- Whoa.
What's with the fashion show?

- New school, new look.

- You're pretty spruced up
yourself. Actually,

you kind of look like Holly.
I just love your style so much.

- Oh, and Holly,
that song you posted last week?

It's still stuck in my head. Uh,
what's your band name anyway?

- We're actually, uh,
still working on it.

- Don't you have
somewhere to be?

- Right. Yes. Good luck today.
- Goodbye!

- Bye.

- Um, have you guys seen
the sign up sheets

for football tryouts anywhere?

- Um, maybe you should consider
what high school has to offer

other than athletics.
If television is to be believed,

this is gonna be the best four
years of our lives.

(scoffs)
- I don't know, I kinda just

wanna keep my head down and
do my own thing.

(gasps)

- Oh! I'm so, so sorry!

- Ugh. It's fine.
- Wait.

You're Holly Hobbie's sister
right?

Do you wanna get it dry cleaned
or something?

- No. It's fine. Not necessary.

- Okay. Sorry, little Hobbie.

- It's Heather.

- Okay, let me help you.

- Wonderful first day.

- That is the second time
this week the Hobbie house

has run out of hot water.
I still have shampoo in my hair.

- Well, I think you look great.

- Thanks. These days where
I have to drive back to campus

really stress me out.

- Well, good thing it's only
three days a week.

- Yeah, but don't you think
it's like really cramped

at the Hobbie house?
And it's only gonna get worse

when the baby's born.

- Well, it's just a tiny
little baby.

How much space could it
possibly take up?

- Babe, what I mean is, how long
do you think it makes sense

for us to keep staying
with your parents?

- You want to move out?

I thought we were gonna wait
a bit to save some money?

- I know that was the plan

but things are going really
well with Goat Jam, right?

- Yeah. We can barely keep up.
- Okay, so,

maybe we think about
getting a place of our own.

With a little garden.
Or a breakfast nook.

- Oh, but Chateau Hobbie
has the best cereal selection
in all of Collinsville.

Heather even bought an amazing
one from Canada.

- Okay, but when we have
our own place,

we can buy all the cereal
that we want.

- You really want this,
don't you?

- I love you, Robbie Hobbie.

And I love being your wife.

I just want to start
our life together.

- Let's start looking today.
- Uh, this is gonna be the best.

I have to hit the road. Bye.

(joyful music)

(bell ringing)

- Don't worry, you got most
of the stains out.

- It's not that bad. Everyone
will forget about it soon.

- Not if you keep talking
about it.

- Freshmen!
Welcome to high school.

Hope you're not finding
your first day too overwhelming.

- Not at all, principal Alton.

- You're Heather Hobbie, right?
Holly's sister?

- Yeah, that's me.

- Guess your sister never
told you about the dress code.

Just so you know, shirt straps
have to be three fingers thick.

- Okay, but I was wearing
a sweater. It just got wrecked.

- Sure, but what you're wearing
now is not appropriate
for school.

The dress code is set the way
it is to minimize distractions.

- How is my shirt distracting?

- Uh, it's not your shirt

but the parts of the body
that it, mm-hmm, doesn't cover.

- My shoulders? How are
my shoulders distracting?

- Look, you're here to learn,

not to draw unwanted attention
to yourself.

- Yeah, stop trying to distract
me, Heather.

- Collin.

- I'm not wearing it like that.
- You need to change

if you want to continue
with us today.

You can borrow something from
the lost and found.

- You want me to wear someone
else's old, gross clothing?

- Well, it's either that or
go home to change.

- You're seriously sending
me home over a shirt?

- Those are the rules.
If I make an exception for you,

then I have to make an exception
for everyone.

(sighs)
- Could this day get any worse?

- Ugh. I just don't know
if we can scale up enough

right now to make more orders.

(cookware clanging)

You okay over there?

- I almost just ruined my newly
perfected blackberry lime, but--

- See, this is what I'm saying.

We don't have enough room
to expand our capacity.

(scoffs)
- You sound like Leila.
She wants to move out.

She doesn't think there's enough
room in the house.

- Do you wanna move out?
- It would be cool to have our
own place, but--

- Well, she's still going
to school,

and you're trying to...
build a business. It's--

- Yeah, exactly. And, I mean,
ugh, look at these places.

I mean, Leila's talking
about how she wants a yard

and a breakfast nook,
whatever that is.

And basically, all the places
we can afford

are either in a basement or
don't have a bathtub.

- Yeah.
(sighs)

- Wait. Is that
the pickle factory?

- Oh. They have been trying
to unload that

ever since the production
left town.

- Why is it so cheap?
It's an entire factory.

- Well, sweety, not a lot
of people are looking

for a specialized
food production facility

in the town of Collinsville.

- I know a couple of people
who might.

- I mean, we could get a loan.

But the cost to retrofit it in
order to produce jam...

be pretty high.
- Yeah, it's probably nuts.

- I mean,
it's not completely nuts.

- We could scale up production
to meet demand.

It would be more profitable
in the long run.

- Look, I'm not disagreeing with
you but it's, it's a big step.

And I'd have to make sure
all the numbers made sense and--

- Leila and I could get
our own place.

She'd have as many breakfast
nooks as she wants.

- Probably only need the one.
- Yeah, true.

- I could crunch the numbers
and then,

if we see what we like,

we could call the bank and
set up a meeting.

- Yes!

(rock music)

(♪)

- Woo!
(laughter)

Holly, this new song is amazing.

- Oh, I was inspired
by everything kids our age
face today.

- We've been practising
all summer.

Now it's time to find a way to
introduce our band to the world.

- And a name. Ooh, what about
"Girl Talk"?

Because we're girls that talk.

But we're also talking about
being girls.

(laughs)
I'll keep trying.

- Oh, I didn't know you were
already home.

- I've actually been home
all afternoon,

thanks to you
and your stupid outfit.

- What are you talking about?
- Some girl spilled smoothie

all over your sweater,
so I had to take it off.

But thank tank top broke
dress code, so I got sent home!

- You got sent home over
a tank top?

- I didn't know we had
a dress code.

- All skirts and shorts must
extend below the finger tips,

no crop tops,

and all straps have to be
at least three fingers wide.

No leggings,
no ripped jeans--

- Have you been to the store
recently?

It's impossible to find anything
that fits that dress code.

That is so ridiculous.
- Is it, though?

We're there to learn.

There's a difference between
looking presentable

and dressing like you're going
to a b--

- Okay, if you hadn't forced me
to dress up,

this never would have happened.

- Heather, you shouldn't be
getting mad at me,

you should be getting mad at
this dress code.

- No way, okay? Holly,
I'm not gonna let you turn this

into a whole big thing.

- You can't let
this injustice stand.

- I'm not you, Holly, okay?!

We may share a last name
but that doesn't mean

I'm legally required to stage
a protest every single time

something goes wrong in my life.

I just want to forget that
it ever happened.

(sighs)

(loud footsteps)

- Guys. What about the name
"The Drama"?

- It was probably a one time
thing.

But maybe they'll have
a sundae bar in the caf again.

- I missed the sundae bar?
- There you are!

Okay, catch you later.

(sighs)
Are you okay?

What happened yesterday
was so terrible.

- I'm fine. Seriously.

- Ugh, it's so unfair
how you had to miss out on
your education

because of a shirt.
- Okay, can we just talk about
anything else?

- Sorry.
- What's with the hoodie?

It's like a 100 degrees out.
- Ugh. Collin, can you just not?

- You're looking kind of sweaty.
You want me to cool you off?

- You should back off now.
- Never mind.

Wouldn't want to fail our test
because I'm distracted

by your shoulders.

- Just shut up!

(sighs)
- Heather!

- He, uh--
- Second day of school

and your second strike.

One more infraction and
you're looking at a suspension.

So I'd think carefully
before you talk back to me.

(sighs)
Now get to class.

- Come on. Let's go.
Let's go.

- Babe?
- Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!

- Where are we?
What are we doing?

- Okay. Come on. Down, down.
- What are we doing?

- Close the door.
- Okay.

- We are so close, okay?
- Where are we?

(chuckles)
- You just wait.

Alright, and, we are here.

Don't take the blindfold off!
- Okay!

- Stay there. Don't take it off!
- Okay!

- Whew! Okay, take it off!
- Okay!

- Ooh!

- We're at the pickle factory!

- Correction, the abandoned
pickle factory

that is soon to be the Goat Jam
production facility. Heh.

- You bought a factory?
- Yeah. Well, I mean,

we still have to wait
for the approval from the bank,
but basically.

- You bought a factory.

You bought a factory...

without talking to me about it.

What were you thinking?

- You're mad. What's going on?

- You were supposed
to be looking for apartments,

not shopping for derelict
industrial buildings.

- Yeah, but all the apartments
we could afford

weren't nice enough.
- So, your solution was to buy
a factory?!

- Yeah, so I could grow
the business and make enough

so that we could actually live
in a nice house like my parents.

- We already live with
your parents.

- Yeah, I don't mean literally
my parent's house!

I mean like my parent's house!

(scoffs)
I don't know why we're fighting.

- Because we're married,
we're supposed to make these
decisions together.

- I wanted to surprise you.
- And you didn't think maybe

I'd have an opinion on this
giant thing

that's gonna affect my life
in a million different ways?

(sighs)

- Where are you going?
- My parent's house.

(scoffs)

- Mm.

Where's Leila?

- Uh, she is at
her parent's place.

- What'd you do?
- She's mad at me

because I didn't talk to her
before calling the bank

about the factory.
- What?!

You, you didn't... tell her?

- I'm doing all of this for her.
How does she not see that?

- Well, it sounds like
she feels blindsided.

- Ugh. I need to fix this,
don't I?

- Yup. Right away. I hate it
when Oscar and I fight.

Um, hey Heather,
can you pass the salad?

- Get it yourself.

- Uh, whoa.
What is your problem?

- Cranky day
in the Hobbie house, hm?

- All I wanted to do was go
to high school.

But no, I had to be
your younger sister wearing
your stupid clothes.

- Well, it's not my fault that
you pushed Collin.

- He was being a jerk.
And now I'm the one in trouble?

(sighs)
- I'm sorry, hun.

It really is unfair.
- So, what?

People should just be able
to wear whatever they want
to school?

- No, but the rules
also shouldn't be sexist.

I mean, there are so many rules
that apply only to girls,

and none that apply only
to guys.

- Well, yeah, but it's not
the school's fault

that girl's clothes are smaller
than guy's clothes.

- No, that would be society's
fault for making girls feel like

they have to dress
a certain way.

- And what if we want to?

Why should we be punished
for that?

- Well, it's not really
appropriate attire

for a school environment.

I mean, I dress up for work,

why shouldn't you dress up
for school?

- So, should I wear a suit
to school?

- No. You just need to dress
respectable.

- Well, I mean, it's not like
she was trying to wear a bikini.

It was an innocent tank top.

- There's gotta be a line
somewhere.

- Well, but that just
tells girls that how people

react to them is their
responsibility.

- No, I agree with--
- I mean, if somebody finds

a girl's body so distracting--

- Can everyone just stop talking
about it?!

- I'm not in the mood for one of
your inspirational monologues.

I just wanted to go to high
school and be Heather,

not Holly's sister or
tank top girl.

Just Heather.

Okay, maybe I'd be into being
the all-star quarter back.

(sighs)

It just feels like this is gonna
follow me around forever.

And the fact that it's so big
and wrong just feels so...

ugh.

- Unjust?

(sighs)
- Yeah.

And I hate that it's taking up
this much space in my brain.

It's like
I can't move on until--

- You do something about it?

- Yeah.

And it's totally unfair because
I got in trouble for something

that was basically out
of my control.

- And wouldn't you hate if it
happened to someone else?

Maybe someone who doesn't have
the support that you do?

Or who isn't strong enough
to speak up?

- Like who?

- All the girls who wear
sweaters on a cold morning

only to find it's a 100 degrees
in the afternoon

and there's no AC in
the science room.

So they either have to risk
getting in trouble...

or sweat through chemistry
class.

- Ugh, fine. Let's just take
down this dress code

and then never talk about it
again.

- Alright.
What are you thinking?

Sit-in? Student walk out?

Ooh, what if we take over
the morning announcements?

- All of those sound
like they're gonna get me
in even more trouble.

And one more infraction and
I get suspended.

And if I get suspended next
week, I miss football try-outs.

- What if, whatever we do,
isn't at school?

- We could do something online.

Because we could reach more
people.
- Mm-hmm.

- But... what?

- Brainstorming is the fun part.

I'm gonna go call in
reinforcements.

- Alright.

(upbeat music)

- Okay, your song is perfect.

It's like you guys knew
this was gonna happen.

- Yeah, kids have so much
to think about these days.

(sighs)
- Alright.

So, we'll cut from the shot
of Heather

wearing the distracting tank top
in question...

to this.

(sighs)
You ready?

- Are the lights bright enough?

- My retinas are burning, so.
- Perfect.

- Okay.

And... action.

- According
to the administration,

that tank top is too distracting
to wear in class.

Well, under the school's
dress code,

this outfit will be
totally fine.

So, are the rules really about
being distracting?

Why should I or any other girl
be singled out

and made to miss school because
people have messed up ideas

about what is and isn't okay
for girls to look like.

Besides, have you been in most
stores recently?

I don't think you can
buy school-approved clothes
if you wanted to.

And what if you're tall
or curvy?

Clothes are automatically
gonna be shorter or tighter,

and there's nothing
you can do about it.

The fashion industry
tells us that we need to
buy certain things,

but then when we wear them
to school, we get in trouble.

It's not okay,
and it's not fair.

I think there's lots for us
to change.

But we should start with
this dress code.

- Alright. Song's in.

Say the word and I'll post it.

- Do it.

(chuckles)

(punk rock music)

(dog barking in distance)

- I'm sorry I didn't talk
to you.

- Yeah, me too.

- I called the bank to try and
get out of the sale.

I still totally think
it's a good idea.

- Robbie,
maybe we rushed into this.

- You wanted a summer wedding

and didn't want to wait
a whole new year.

- I know, but...

sometimes I feel like
our marriage isn't real.

- You were there.
We said our vows.

Holly sang that song.
The midnight pizza buffet.

- Yeah, that was the wedding.
But the marriage...

that's what we're supposed to be
building together.

And between living with
your family

and you doing this without
talking to me,

I just feel like
maybe we're not a team.

- You really hate living
with my family?

- No, I don't hate it all.
It can get a little crowded.

Honestly, I just,

I feel like maybe you don't want
to live with just me.

I mean, is that why you went
and bought a factory

instead of looking for
apartments?

- I bought the factory to take
Goat Jam to the next level.

You're away at school like
half the week.

I don't want to be alone
that long.

- Why didn't you tell me that?
- Because it's embarrassing.

I'm a grown, married man.

And I still want to live with
my parents.

- Robbie, I think that's sweet.

And that's what I'm saying,
like we should be able to talk

about these things with
each other.

- What about the factory?

- Robbie,
I think it's a great idea.

- Leila--
- Yeah.

- Seriously?
- I do.

I think it's an amazing move
for you,

I just really don't want
to be surprised by these giant
decisions

that affect my life, you know?

- And what about us?

You okay staying at
my parent's a while longer?

- I can manage.

But I'm instituting a shower
schedule. I have to.

(chuckles)
- About that.

I talked to my parents and
I'm gonna build

a second bathroom in
the basement.

- You're building me a bathroom?
- Yeah.

And when Goat Jam is
a little bit more established

and you're done with school,
we can get our own place.

Really make it a home.
Is that okay?

- It sounds perfect.

I really love you.
- I love you too.

(joyful music)

I love you babe.
(chuckles)

- Why is everyone looking at me?

- Your post about
the dress code, it's blowing up.

- Students from other schools
are sharing their stories.

They're even posting about
wearing their own distracting
outfits at school.

- Yeah, they're calling it
"Doing a distraction."

This tall girl bought
this same exact skirt as
her shorter friend

and got sent home because
it was too short on her.

Oh, and this Black girl got sent
home because the school thought

that her beaded braids
were a distraction.

Her hair, can you believe that?

- Seriously?
- Oh yeah.

You know, there's even
an article on GenZ heroes
about you.

- Wait, really?

- Yeah. "Heather Hobbie of
Collinsville

clapped back at her school's
unfair dress code

with her clever viral post

which is sparking hundreds
of imitations."

You're a star.
- Okay. That's pretty cool!

(laughing)
- It's better than pretty cool.

You might actually make
a change.

(announcer): Will Heather Hobbie
please report

to the principal's office.

(sighs)

- I didn't do anything
at school.

- But you've really painted
the school in a negative light.

I've been fielding calls
from the media all day.

- Because the dress code
is stupid.

And what happened to me
was unfair.

And after reading about other
incidents at other schools,

I think that those are
unfair too.

I guess I think that dress codes
harm more than they help.

- I don't disagree but
this is your third infraction

which means you're suspended.

- Even though you're on my side?

- I don't make the rules...

about the dress code or about
the three strikes rule

in the code of conduct.
- Okay, so,

you agree that
the dress code is unfair

but you're still gonna punish me
for standing up to it?

- To be clear, you're being
suspended for pushing Collin

and for badmouthing
the school on social media.

- Neither of which
I would have done if you
hadn't humiliated me.

(sighs)

- I'm not trying to be unfair
with you, Heather.

I just have to think about
the bigger picture.

We're just trying to teach
kids respect.

- Then maybe you should
model it.

Respect us enough to
let us make our own decisions

about what's appropriate.

And if there's a problem,
deal with it case by case.

- Let me think about it.

- This is the new place.
It's really good.

- Oh, really good.

- Is it--
- I enjoy it.

(gasps)

- I did it!
- What?

- The administration agreed that
what happened to me was unfair!

- What?
- They're revoking
my suspension!

There's also a formal apology
for how Alton singled me out

and they're going to examine
the dress code in detail

to make sure that it doesn't
unfairly target any one group
of students.

- Ooh!
- Congratulations!

- Student has become
the teacher.

- Good for you.
- Cheers.

- Cheers.
- I still have one strike
for shoving Colling.

That's fine. I mean, it's fair,
but he deserved it, so.

- Hm.
- Ah, ooh!

We finally figured out
our band name.

- Oh.
- People kept asking us

what we were called after
Heather's post blew up.

So, we had to come up
with something.

- And?
- Pretty please.

- Oh, I love it!
- Right?

- Not bad.
- I like it.

I like it. And you're welcome.
My commission is 15 %.

- Okay. Oh, and also, we've been
getting so many streams.

People are begging for
a full version.

- Ah!

Well, um, your father and I,

we have some good news too.
- Oh come on.

You're already pregnant. What,
can you get double pregnant?

- We're...

having a girl.
- Oh!

Yes! High five! Yes!

- Good thing I'm building
that bathroom.

- Oh, whatever Robbie.

He takes twice as long to get
ready as I do.

- So what? Sometimes I need
extra time

to perfect my hair, sue me.

(laughter)

- We need to talk about
baby names, okay?

Girl names,
what are we thinking?

- It doesn't matter how
bonkers life gets,

as long as you have
your family behind you.

And I hope that never changes.
