The Patch opens every autumn providing fun for families and jobs for high school students. Josiah and Deja have worked there every year. This will be their last since they are both headed off to college.
Their first year at the Patch, Deja introduced herself to Josiah and they've been fall friends ever since. They work together in the Succotash Hut stirring up and serving a yummy vegetable concoction.
Since tonight is their last night, Deja has plans. She wants to treat herself to some of the tasty snacks served at some of the other spots around the Patch, and more importantly, she wants to make sure Josiah meets the girl of his dreams who works in the Fudge Shoppe. He has talked about her every year, but he's never made a move. Deja's plan takes them on a crazy adventure all around the Patch. She achieves some of her goals and is surprised by the end result.
