Anne, a high-strung game show fanatic, learns that her mother has vanished to Macau due to her serious gambling problem. This shocking news forces Anne to confront her family's issues and brings her closer to her estranged sister, Jenny.

Jenny, Anne's reckless older sister, has been living in her car but is temporarily staying with Anne after their mother's disappearance. Their reunion sets the stage for a series of tumultuous events that bring their conflicting personalities to light.

While Anne is engrossed in her favorite game show, Jenny records her showcasing impressive trivia skills and uploads the clip online. The video goes viral, drawing unwanted attention and changing the trajectory of their lives.

The notoriety from the viral video attracts a dangerous loan shark who demands that Anne repay her mother's staggering $80,000 gambling debt. In a shocking turn of events, the loan shark kidnaps Anne's pet dog, Mr. Linguini, to pressure her.

Desperate to get her dog back, Anne confronts Jenny and pleads for her to use money from a supposed lawsuit settlement to help. The conversation takes a turn when Jenny admits she lied about the settlement, leaving Anne feeling even more helpless.

Following the fallout, Jenny encourages Anne to audition for *Can't Stop the Quiz*, believing it could lead to winning enough money to pay off the debt. Jenny's push comes from her belief that Anne has the talent to succeed, despite their fraught relationship.

As Anne prepares for her audition, Jenny dislocates her wrist during a night out at a bar. While waiting at the hospital, the two sisters reminisce about their childhood, revealing deeper connections and past insecurities.

On the day of the audition, Anne battles with anxiety and considers backing out. However, after taking calming pills provided by Jenny, which turn out to be hallucinogenic, she manages to gather her focus and impress the audition panel.

After the audition, Jenny reveals she orchestrated everything to ensure Anne participated in the game show for her own ambitions as a life coach. Anne feels betrayed, understanding that Jenny's intentions were self-serving.

Following her confrontation with Jenny, Anne finds solace in an unexpected invitation from her cantankerous neighbor, Francine. Their conversation provides Anne with fresh insight into her life choices and the importance of self-validation.

Anne receives a call inviting her to compete on *Can't Stop the Quiz*, where she decides to partner with Francine. This opportunity signifies her new beginning, setting the stage for her to face her fears and challenge herself.

As Anne prepares for her show, Jenny successfully negotiates with the loan sharks, retrieving Mr. Linguini from captivity. This act of bravery rekindles the bond between the sisters as they work together for a common goal.

During the competition, Anne faces off against Ron, the reigning champion, finishing the first round in second place. With Jenny's arrival with Mr. Linguini, Anne finds renewed strength to continue and fight for her victory.

During an emotional round of charades, Anne expresses to Jenny that she sees her as a hero, reinforcing their bond. This moment signifies their growing understanding and appreciation for one another amidst chaos.

Anne triumphs, winning a record 93 consecutive games and earning a writer's position on the show. With Jenny's settlement finally reaching them, they pay off their mother's debts and purchase a luxurious Malibu mansion, starting anew together.
