In 1999, distressed teen Angela Waters commits suicide at a Y2K party in a warehouse after her pleas for help are ignored by everyone, including friends Davie Adams, Sidney Haworthe, Corey Bryant, Elodie Honrada, and Marjorie Olivar. 22 years later, Davie receives an envelope with the flyer from the Y2K party and an ominous message written on the back. Her teenage pregnant daughter, Imogen, and Imogen's ex-best friend, Karen Beasley, soon find Davie dead in the bathtub with an 'A' scrawled in blood nearby. Imogen moves in with Sidney and Sidney's daughter, Tabby, and a month later returns to school. After panicking about her future of raising the baby with no support, Imogen, after a verbal altercation with Karen, declares her intent to run against Karen for Spirit Week Queen. Meanwhile, Tabby argues with her film teacher about the curriculum and later promotes a double feature screening at her workplace, the Orpheum; she soon receives a strange text. Fellow students Noa Olivar (who is on probation, has to wear an ankle monitor and does daily community service), Minnie Honrada (a quiet student often found in the computer lab) and Faran Bryant (an outstanding ballet student who was just rewarded the role of The Black Swan) also receive strange messages and they all begin to see a strange masked figure watching them. The masked figure later murders a school janitor after he finds the figure's secret lair.

Kelly, impersonating Karen, confesses to Principal Clanton that she was the one that committed the crimes The Little Liars were punished for, but this was just the twins' plan to get back at Imogen for the video. Karen drops out of the spirit queen race. The girls arrive at the party and the principal announces Imogen as the spirit queen. Previously, Kelly proposed to get revenge at Imogen in the style of Carrie, by pouring a bucket of red paint on her while she receives her crown. Before the plan is executed, the girls see Karen hiding in the rafters and try to warn Imogen. Imogen heeds their warning and looks up to see the masked figure push Karen to her death.
