As they navigate birthdays, parties, and the challenges of starting a business, they also balance personal goals: Vi seeks the perfect gift for her dad, Becca hopes to catch the eye of a new Irish neighbor named Ryan, and Lauren juggles summer studies. Will their friendship survive the entrepreneurial rush?
