In the main story, Candy and her friends decide to make their own movie production using an uncle's camera, with one friend planning to grow a mustache to become a star. The group's filmmaking efforts quickly descend into chaos when they attempt to film a scene on a city street, accidentally breaking a world record and causing a flying saucer to appear, creating widespread panic. A subplot involves Candy encountering an old acquaintance named William S. Bragg at a social gathering, leading to comedic misunderstandings about his past. The story concludes with the characters' various schemes and aspirations colliding in typical teen-comedy fashion.

Ted Dawson and his band get an unexpected telegram inviting them to perform at the Van Shysters' fancy party—but what Ted doesn't know is that rival Ashley Hartburn sent the whole thing as a prank to embarrass him. When the band actually shows up and wins over the stuffy guests with their hot jive music, Ashley's scheme backfires spectacularly, and he learns a hard lesson about meddling with musicians.

When Candy decides that a nature walk is just what everyone needs for their health, she drags her reluctant friends on an ambitious hike to a historic bridge—with predictably exhausting results. What starts as Candy's enthusiastic lesson in fresh air and exercise becomes a comedy of groaning feet, dwindling patience, and one very soggy climax that'll have her rethinking her wellness regimen.

When Candy O'Connor sets out to deliver a rare Borah Bopworthy record to her friend Ted at a party, what should be a simple errand spirals into an increasingly wild chain of mishaps—a crowded bus evacuation, a runaway record bouncing through the city streets, and an unfortunate misunderstanding with the law. As chaos unfolds, Candy discovers that keeping the precious platter safe might require more than just good intentions, and a judge with an unexpected passion for vinyl could be the unlikely key to saving the day.
