Dawn Betterman walks into the castle, and sees Maui, shaping a long piece of timber with tools. Maui saw Dawn Betterman and greets her with a good morning. Dawn Betterman smiles with Maui, greets him as well. Discovering Maui has built a cross, Dawn Betterman angrily destroys it and calls him a disgrace and coward. Maui laughs, saying that it is funny, Dawn Betterman laughed, too. Then, the rest of her gang showed up: Miguel Rivera, Dennis, Zephyr, Nuffink, Janice Templeton, Phoebe Quantum and Hiro Hamada.

Nuffink likes life and death that Jesus died on the cross and rise again, but Zephyr told them about holes, the hammer blows and makes anyone in the great pain. While her friends making jokes, Dawn Betterman goes outside and wanders off, but Dennis followed her. Dawn Betterman undoes her hair as Dennis found her. While they're feeling the wind, they found a amulet which is collected with 7 passions.

At that moment, God appears, who told her that she is the chosen one and to be sent to Jerusalem. Dawn Betterman is honored to obey God and followed her heart as Maui arrives to pick them up and heads back to the castle and tell their parents. With this, a power-hungry madman named Drago Bludvist, who watches over Dawn Betterman and someday he will destroy Jerusalem after Dawn Betterman died on the cross.

Meanwhile, back at the castle, Dawn Betterman is explaining to her dad how God chose her. After seeing God, Phil Betterman agrees to keep this a secret from the world, and from her mom, Hope Betterman, who thinks Passion isn't real. Maui tells Phil Betterman that they should go to Jeruslaem and she'll do what God says and they all agreed.

Dawn Betterman and her friends arrived at Jerusalem, which Dawn Betterman rode the horse. After their arrival, Dawn Betterman and Maui performs The Cleansing of the Temple, Dawn Betterman gives everyone a speech about death and live and they will baptieze with water and Drago Bludvist is coming! Overhearing this, Drago Bludvist arrives and informs everyone that there's no violence.

After that, Drago Bludvist secretly tells his henchmen about his plan. The gang were tired and their feet are flithy. Then, Dawn Betterman shows up and washes everyone feet and hair. Realizing what was happening, Miguel Rivera feared about Zephyr said. Dawn Betterman calms her friends down and gives them Bread And Wine. After their Last Supper, Dawn Betterman led her friends to the Garden of Gethsemane, which was dark and shadowy. While the rest of the team asleep, Dawn Betterman and Miguel Rivera were watching at the moonlight during their conversation. Suddenly, there was torches and lanterns, a crowd of sticks and swords of soldiers, who were led by Drago Bludvist. Before she can go, Dawn Betterman bid farewell to her friends, and the soldiers arrest Dawn Betterman.

They took Dawn Betterman to the temple and the soldiers walks away, leaving Dawn Betterman behind. A man named Pontius Pilate, who confronted Dawn Betterman and tells her that she must be put to death, Dawn Betterman seriously tells him that she doing the same thing that Jesus did, And Pontius Pilate agreed and sends her away.

Dawn Betterman is tied and whipped and flogged, a crown of thorns is placed on her head. Her friends were found by the adults, who followed them. The Soldiers lead Dawn Betterman through the streets and Golgotha. Golgotha, the hill of the skull. The soldiers bring Dawn Betterman to the hill, Dawn Betterman looks at the cross that she remembered at home. She sees her parents and tries to gesture to them. Two soldiers grab Dawn Betterman by the arms, stretch her out on the cross while slave laborers finish preparing the post hole for the cross. The soldiers place the crude spikes against Dawn Betterman's hands. She was nailed to the cross. Dawn Betterman sees her friends and parents, who were looking at her.

Dawn Betterman looks at them one last time and she died. Following the orders of Pontius Pilate, the soldiers carried Dawn Betterman away, although they treated her that she broke the law. This was because some of the people who did not believe that Dawn Betterman was chosen and the daughter of Phil and Hope. And so it was that Dawn Betterman died on the cross with two criminals. Her friends were very sad, they miss their leader. What will happen next?

After Dawn Betterman died, Maui, Miguel Rivera and Dennis laid her body in the tomb. They sealed it with a large round stone. Then, the earth sook, Jesus came down from Heaven, who told them about Dawn Betterman's revival. Janice Templeton tells her friends about Dawn Betterman and they all cheered as Dawn Betterman arrived. She shows them about her hands and feet. Then, Dawn Betterman tells them that she found out about Drago Bludvist's plan and invites them to a war. Dawn Betterman summons Miguel Rivera, he put his ear on Dawn Betterman's bust, feeling her heart. She shows off her muscles and ready to take down Drago Bludvist.

Dawn Betterman and her friends use face-painting and get the weapons. Now prepared for war, they encounter Drago Bludvist, who learned that Dawn Betterman is still lives. The battle ensues where they fight the soldiers. During the battle, Dawn Betterman confronted Drago Bludvist, who heard about his plan and transformed herself as a phoenix, causing everyone in surprise, as she killed him and restored Jerusalem with her powers. When Dawn Betterman reverted back to normal, Phil and Hope praised their daughter, so does God. God gives her a reward: to do some changes and freedom.

In the epilogue, the gang returned home and do some changes in the castle. Maui becomes a story-teller, Hiro Hamada become an artist, Nuffink eat bread while Zephyr drinks wine, Janice Templeton and Phoebe Quantum become hip-bumpers, Jesus and his disciples now lived in heaven, Drago Bludvist was punished for his crimes and sent to hell.
