The Sitter

Noah Griffith is introduced as an unemployed college student living with his divorced mother in New Jersey. His life revolves around a monotonous routine, stripped of excitement and direction, showcasing the challenges of young adulthood.

Noah's mundane existence takes a turn when he is called upon to babysit the Pedulla children after a last-minute babysitter cancellation. Reluctantly, he steps into the role, not knowing the chaos that awaits him.

Upon arrival at the Pedulla house, Noah meets the three children: Slater, who is anxious; Blithe, a vivacious pop culture enthusiast; and Rodrigo, a mischievous young pyromaniac. Each child presents unique challenges that test Noah's patience and creativity.

As the night begins, chaos erupts in the Pedulla household, primarily instigated by Rodrigo's antics. With broken vases and flying toys, Noah struggles to maintain control while also thinking about a potential rendezvous with Marisa.

Noah receives a tempting offer from Marisa, who promises intimacy if he brings cocaine to her party. Torn between his babysitting duties and desire for personal fulfillment, Noah decides to embark on a reckless quest to procure the drugs with the children in tow.

In a wild turn of events, Rodrigo steals a baby dinosaur egg filled with cocaine from Karl's home. This impulsive act leads to a series of dangerous situations that Noah must navigate while keeping the children safe and satisfied.

Noah receives a threatening call from Karl, demanding the return of the stolen egg or repayment of a debt. The pressure mounts as Noah realizes he must find a solution quickly, while also balancing the needs of the children under his care.

In an effort to escape his troubles, Noah learns from Slater about Wendy Sapperstein's upcoming bat mitzvah, where a cash gift is anticipated. Seizing the opportunity, Noah devises a plan to steal the money to pay off Karl's debts.

The night of Wendy's bat mitzvah leads to a flurry of misadventures. Blithe scores a large sum of money, while another twin tries to confront Noah, while Rodrigo creates a mess that forces Noah and the kids to make a hasty retreat.

Facing financial desperation, Noah attempts to steal valuables from his family's jewelry store in a bid to pay Karl. However, the plan quickly backfires as Rodrigo's reckless antics lead to shocking results, intensifying the chaos.

As Slater's situation becomes dire, he reveals the medication he uses to mask his true self. Noah's realization encourages Slater to embrace his identity, showcasing a pivotal moment in personal growth amid the chaos around them.

The crew confronts Tina at a club to reclaim their stolen minivan. The confrontation spirals out of control when Tina retaliates, leading to further chaos and complicating their mission to settle their debts.

As tensions peak, Karl's gang pursues Noah and the children, leading to a thrilling car chase. Noah showcases his evasive skills, ultimately using a cherry bomb to create a diversion that aids their escape.

In the climactic moments, Noah confronts Karl armed with a gun. Just when all seems lost, Blithe's intervention leads to a violent confrontation, paving the way for Noah and the children to flee safely.

After returning the children home and concluding the chaotic night, Noah reflects on his experiences. The conclusion reveals the character development of everyone involved, including their individual paths towards embracing their true selves.
