Derby Harrington and Pinky Gauthier, who are cousins, were engaged due to a family tradition. However, she dumped Derby after he was three minutes late to a date, it’s not like he cared, matter of fact they never truly liked each other.

The feeling of humiliation washes over him the moment he discovered that his ex-fiancée, is on a date with Jimmy Hopkins at Billy Crane’s Traveling Carnival. Really? Jimmy boy, over anyone else?! To save his pride and make Pinky jealous, Derby spots you at the carnival and asks you to be his fake date whether you like it or not. Of course, he’d choose you? You’re rich, popular, and is the prettiest girl in school! So much on his level. This way, Derby could show his ex that he has a better replacement than that Jimmy Jimmy Coco Puff.

"Listen, I don't have time for games. Pinky's here with that riffraff Jimmy Hopkins. I need you to be my date- Well fake date more likely, love. We need to show them what real class looks like."
