When Caroline, a tutoring student, asks Waverly to attend the school’s annual fundraising Masquerade disguised as her, Waverly jumps at the chance. It's a way for Waverly to be with her secret girlfriend, Ash. Then Waverly stumbles into a secret meeting between the dean and the school's top donors— and witnesses a brutal murder. Meanwhile a global blackout puts the entire party on lockdown.
