Peggy Sue Got Married

In 1985, Peggy Sue Bodell comes to her 25-year high school reunion with her daughter, Beth. The atmosphere is filled with nostalgia, but also tension due to the recent breakdown of her marriage to Charlie.

At the reunion, Peggy Sue reconnects with old friends, Maddy and Carol. However, she consciously avoids her estranged husband, Charlie, who serves as a painful reminder of her recent heartbreak.

The reunion takes an unexpected turn when Peggy Sue is named the queen of the reunion alongside Richard Norvik, the former class geek turned successful inventor. Overwhelmed by the honor, Peggy Sue faints on stage, prompting concern from the crowd.

After regaining consciousness, Peggy Sue finds herself inexplicably sent back in time to 1960, during her senior year of high school. Confused and disoriented, she decides to return to her childhood home to escape her current reality.

Back in 1960, Peggy Sue reaches out to Richard, hoping that he can help her understand her strange predicament. As she reveals intimate details about the future, Richard begins to believe in her time-travel claims.

Before making a definitive decision about her relationship with Charlie, Peggy Sue allows herself one more night with him after a party. However, Charlie's panic about their recent separation leads to further emotional turmoil for Peggy Sue.

At an all-night café, Peggy Sue meets Michael Fitzsimmons, a free-spirited loner. Their conversation reveals an unexpected connection and ignites buried feelings in Peggy Sue, leading them to share a ride on his motorcycle.

While at a local music bar, Michael expresses his desire for a polyamorous relationship. Peggy Sue declines politely, encouraging him to focus on their shared connection, setting the stage for complex emotions.

As the evening progresses, Charlie performs at the bar, but his music career remains unfulfilled when a talent scout overlooks him. Watching Charlie, Peggy Sue gains a new perspective on their relationship and his struggles.

The next day, Peggy Sue tries to discuss her feelings with Charlie, only to be met with his frustration. Feeling disheartened, she confides in Richard about her desire to escape their toxic relationship.

As Peggy Sue’s 18th birthday approaches, she visits her grandparents, who share family secrets with her. Her grandmother reveals her psychic abilities, sparking Peggy Sue's interest in her family's past.

After discussing her situation with her grandfather, Peggy Sue is introduced to a Masonic lodge that performs a ritual designed to send her back to 1985. However, Charlie interrupts just as the ceremony begins, complicating matters.

Back in the present, Charlie proposes to Peggy Sue, offering her a locket filled with childhood pictures. This gesture reignites old feelings, leading Peggy Sue to feel a sense of clarity regarding their relationship.

Peggy Sue wakes up in a hospital bed in 1985 with Charlie by her side. He presents her with a tribute from Michael, affirming the reality of her time-travel and prompting a heartfelt discussion about forgiveness.

As they share a moment, Peggy Sue invites Charlie to dinner, promising to bake a strudel. This simple act symbolizes their commitment to rebuilding their relationship and moving forward together.
