However, Jaime has always wanted to be a politician and decides there is no time like the present to conquer his fear of speaking to the public.

Her parents are going through a separation, she has zero plans for the summer to help take her mind off things and her only close friend is permanently busy. To help occupy her, her parents offer to buy her a car if she agrees to go canvassing.
