Description: "The Enderson Brothers -- Scott, Chris, Otto and Ryan -- dominate the social scene and bring excitement to the uneventful town of Plainville. They are well-known and well-liked, most of the time. Their loyalty to each other is indestructible until one brother drifts into the wrong crowd. Then there's Alex, the family's youngest child and only daughter, who struggles to rise above her family's reputation. The Enderson parents work long hours and often leave their kids home alone. While the brother enjoy their teenage freedom, Alex deals with her frustrations of youth with the comfort of her best friend Elaine. Alex is constantly reminded that someday she will become a mature woman, someday boys will like her, someday she'll look back at her youth and laugh. After a revelation by the outcast brother, the family divided. Dad has to remind all the kids who's really in charge despite the devastating consequences. Will the Enderson family ever be the close-knit group they once were?
