Eager to grow up, Abigail "Abby" Louise Jensen (
Debby Ryan) has been planning for her Sweet 16th birthday party ever since she was a little girl with a list of secret wishes she wants to come true. When the big day finally arrives, she excitedly adds her 16th and final wish to the secret wish list she's been keeping - a photo of Logan (
Keenan Tracy), her crush. Then begins the first of many unusual occurrences, each including visits from a peculiar woman, Celeste (
Anna Mae Routledge). She first appears as an exterminator when the Jensen's house gets overrun by wasps from a nest in their attic that has been building up for 16 years. The Jensen family are now unable to go back into their house until the wasps are exterminated, however, Celeste manages to extract Abby's wish list from the house. Abby's best friend, Jay Kepler (
Jean-Luc Bilodeau), appears and offers Abby a jacket to wear over her pyjamas, as she is unable to go back into her house to change. When Abby reaches into Jay's jackets pocket, she finds a birthday present for her from Jay. It is a necklace with a half of a heart saying "BFF". Jay has the other half which he uses a charm on his key ring. As Jay and Abby go to their bus stop, a delivery truck pulls up, and Celeste comes out, dressed as a mail woman and gives a package to Abby. When Abby opens it, she discovers 16 candles and a matchbox.
Unwilling to ride the bus to school, Abby lights the first candle and wishes for a new car, the eighth wish on her list. However, her first wish, meeting Joey Lockhart (
Joel Semande), the hottest celebrity, is fulfilled. Abby then realizes that the candles correspond to her 16 wishes on her list and that they're each coming true every time a candle is lit. Celeste later tells her after midnight, all wishes will become permanent. Abby lands the attention of Logan, gets the
Ford Mustang she's always dreamed of, she gets back at her lifelong nemesis, Krista Cook (
Karissa Tynes) by beating her in a volleyball match, then getting elected as Student Body President, even though she didn't sign up for the elections. Also, she is suddenly fashionable, athletic, and popular.
During classes, Abby remembers that she needs the perfect dress for prom, and decides to go out and buy it, together with Jay, which agrees to pay for it. They are followed by Krista, who decides to see where Abby's sudden good luck comes from, and when Jay drops his wallet she takes it. She also convinces the store clerk that they are not going to buy anything (saying they are children) and are just wasting her time. The clerk believes her and kicks them out. While in the changing room, Abby uses the ninth candle and makes a wish to be treated like an adult, which instead, makes her an adult. This turns for the worse for Abby as it results in her not being allowed to attend high school anymore, and no one at school remembers her, not even Jay. Her parents also buy her a new apartment and leave her to live on her own.
Regretting her wish and lost childhood, Abby tries to look for a solution by going through her wishlist, though none of them are useful. goes to Krista's Sweet 16 and convinces Jay that they are best friends by showing him the birthday present he gave her which restores his memories of her. However, Jay is unable to help her and can do nothing. Desperate, Abby seeks the aid of Celeste, who is also unable to help her. Celeste then explains that there are several rules of magic, and one of them is that a wish cannot be undone. Abby eventually finds a loophole through the rules, seeing as how her last wish was a picture of her crush, glued on with gum, which seems to act as a "barrier" between the picture and the rules. She switches the picture for a picture taken that morning of her and wishes she could go back to the previous morning.
Abby's life then goes back to normal, along with some dead wasps in the process. She and Krista reconcile after Krista tells Abby why she hates her - back in the 3rd grade, Abby and Jay made a pact to be best friends forever, leaving Krista out, though up until that point, Krista and Jay had been best friends. Abby and Krista have a combined Sweet 16 party and Krista and Logan get together. Abby and Krista stop competing and work together to make the person who truly deserves to be Student Body President: Jay. Abby and Jay kiss before sharing a dance together. Abby says she got everything she wants; Celeste then disappears, smiling.
Pangalawa ay The Clique
The movie starts with Massie Block screaming in her bedroom at her parents. She was going to a party but Massie's parents, Kendra and William, will not let her go because William's friend Jay and his family are moving to Westchester from Florida to stay in their Guesthouse. Massie is angry with them so she calls her friends Dylan, Alicia, and Kristen. Massie tells them that the host of the party, Shelby Wexler, has head lice, so that Dylan, Alicia, and Kristen will not want to attend. Massie goes to her pool and is reading a magazine when her mother comes out to make a deal with her. She says that she can go to the end of the party if she will be nice to Jay's daughter, Claire, a girl who is Massie's age, and will be going to her school, Octavian Country Day. The next scene shows Claire and her family arriving at Massie's house. When Massie first sees Claire, she hates her right away, judging by her outfit. Todd, Claire's little brother, is shown to have an obvious crush on Massie. At dinner, Claire gives Massie a charm of a silver microphone for Massie's charm bracelet which Massie makes a rude comment about. Massie then tries to leave for her party but is overheard by Claire, whom Kendra invites to go to the party, but Massie, not wanting to bring her, fakes sick. Claire, envious of Massie's fashion and clothes, asks her mother to take her shopping for new clothes for school. After some begging, her mother agrees. At the mall, Claire meets Dylan, who is in a fight with her own mother because she refuses to buy Dylan pants as she is not a specific size. Claire tells Dylan to switch the tags, which Dylan delightfully replies saying, "You're brilliant!" Once seeing the rest of her friends, she leaves thanking Claire, who, turning away, smiles.
The next day Massie decides to go riding with her horse, Brownie. On her trail she meets a boy named Chris Abeley who Massie instantly develops a crush on. After a short conversation, they make plans to go riding the following week, in which Chris says "It's a date." The next day Claire hears she is going to school with Massie, much to her excitement. She gets into the car, soon to be accompanied by Massie, who requests that she sits in the back, as they have to "pick up a few more" (Dylan, Alicia, and Kristen). Dylan and Claire recognize each other, and Dylan immediately then stops liking Claire because of Massie's disapproval. During the ride, Kristen asks Massie if they "like" Claire, which Massie coldly replies "No." When Claire is walking to school, she runs into Chris Abeley, who is riding his skateboard and trips, falling onto Claire. Seeing him, Claire develops a crush on him. Massie sees this and storms into the school, furious. Claire comes by and asks Massie for a room location, which Massie replies Claire to "get back to wherever the hell she came from", then offers her friends lattes. Claire goes to art class where the class is supposed to paint a still life of tomatoes. Alicia, who was next to her, spilled red paint on Claire's white jeans, then IMed her friends that she got her period. The art teacher, Vincent, tells Claire to go to the nurse. Claire, not knowing why, asks Dylan for directions, in which Dylan gives Claire the false directions to the class Massie is in. Claire then finds the real nurse's office, and gets new clothes from her "period". At lunch, Massie's crew makes fun of her and laughs at her outfit, causing Claire to leave. Massie, Dylan, Alicia and Kristen have afterschool plans as well, to watch Chris Abeley at school, and Claire is not invited, so she walks home. The next day, when Claire is at school, she decides to make a new friend and show Massie up. She befriends Layne Abeley, who is Chris's little sister. Claire tells Layne she is friends with Massie, lying that she is jealous that she has a new friend and can't only hang out with her. Layne and Claire decide to hang out on Friday, but when Claire comes back home Kendra told Claire that every Friday Massie has a sleepover with her friends and invites her as well. Claire accepts, but she does not know that Massie doesn't want her to come. Claire calls Layne and lies that she has to babysit for Todd, and goes to the sleepover. They are donating old clothes for the annual auction, and they all look at her like she doesn't belong there. Massie and her mother talk, and Massie's mother tells Massie that she has to be nice to Claire. Massie invites Claire to the place they go to sleep during the sleepovers, so Claire goes down. The girls were playing What Would You Rather? Alicia asks if they would rather be A) Friendless losers or B) someone with a ton of friends who secretly hate them. Claire picks A, which Alicia says, "Congratulations, you got your wish." Claire turns to go, but Massie says, "Have you ever played truth or dare?" so they start to play. They then go to sleep, but Alicia makes a farting noise and asks Claire if it was her. Claire gets up to leave, Massie tells her she doesn't have to go. Claire says she wants to.
The next day in the car, Kristen tells the girls she has to do a project, so the girls decided to make a make-up company which Claire named Glambition. When the girls go to make their Glambition lip gloss, Dylan, Alicia and Kristen are waiting for Massie, but Claire wanted to go for a swim. Massie is out riding with Chris Abeley and finds out that Layne is Chris's sister, therefore pretends to be friends with her. Claire convinces the three to swim with her, and they all have fun. Claire lies about the brand of her bathing suit, telling them it is an original Astrud but when Massie comes back from seeing Chris Abeley, she sees through Claire's lie and calls her bathing suit a knockoff. Claire goes home in tears. Her mother sees that something is wrong, telling her to talk to Massie. Claire goes up to talk to Massie about what happened, but it turns out Massie is not there, so she sneaks over to her iMac and pretends to be Massie while IMing Alicia, telling her that she likes Claire now and that she is wearing shorts over tights the next day, which everyone but Massie wears. The next night Claire goes up to Massie's IM again, and insults Dylan's legs, asking if she thinks her legs look good in in a miniskirt, causing Dylan to be mad at Massie and wear only long skirts to hide her legs. The next night, Claire kidnaps Massie's dog Bean to send Massie to go look for Bean. Claire sneaks into Massie's room again and IMs Kristen, tricking her into telling that she's poor. She escapes in time to get away from Massie. The next day, Kristen, Dylan and Alicia befriend Claire and ditch Massie, because they believe that she is friends with Layne instead of them now. Claire accepts, and even hangs out with them after school. They go to a designer store, and Alicia offers to buy her a dress and gives Claire her old cell phone. They then go back to Dylan's house and have fun trying things on and messing around. Claire goes home and starts talking back to her mother, being more like Massie was.
Massie, that night, IMs all of her friends, but only Kristen replies because Massie tells her that she has the makeup lip gloss tubes, and Kristen comes to pick them up, which the two of them get into a screaming argument and Massie figures out about Claire using her IM while she was out. Massie calls Claire with her other friends on a five way conversation, and tells her that her fun is over, then hanging up on her. The girls come over the next day to mix the makeup recipe together to hand out at the school field trip. The girls gossip about Chris Abeley, and Massie asks her friends what to do for Chris Abeley's birthday. They plan for Massie to jump out of a cake at the auction. Claire then comes down and asks to borrow an egg, which Massie agrees to, throwing it at Claire, who runs upstairs crying.
She confides in her mother about things she did and what's going on, and the next day at the school field trip, Claire makes up with Layne. When the Pretty Committee starts selling their lip gloss, all the girls lips swell or burn, which Claire saves the day with oatmeal, to help the girls' lips.
The next day at the auction, Claire meets Chris Abeley's girlfriend, Fawn, and Claire saves Massie from an embarrassing situation by sitting on the cake and asking Fawn to come up and talk about Chris. Massie and Claire talk backstage from the stage, and Massie is nicer and gives Claire a flower. The movie ends with Claire going to sleep and telling her mother that Massie gave her the flower and she wants Massie being nice to her as well as the flower to last for a long while.
THE END!
