Being a first-generation Asian American immigrant is hard. You know what's harder? Being the daughter of one. Samantha Kang has never gotten along with her mother, Priscilla - and has never understood her bougie-nightmare, John Hughes high school expectations. After a huge fight between them, Sam is desperate to move forward - but instead, finds herself thrown back. Way back. To her shock, Sam finds herself back in high school - in the '90s - with a 17-year-old Priscilla. Now this Gen Z girl must try to fit into an analogue world. She's got the fashion down, but everything else is baffling. What is 'microfiche'? What's with the casual racism and misogyny? And why does it feel like Priscilla is someone she could actually be friends with?
