Seventeen year-old Thompson Lake has just gone through a terrible breakup. Desperate to win back his ex, Caroline,who's a diehard Elvis fan, he drops by the Tiki House on Elvis Presley night.

As luck would have it, Johnny needs a temporary assistant to help with equipment and social media and Thompson eagerly accepts the offer, hoping it will distract him from his painful and lingering romantic issues. Like Thompson, Johnny is nursing a secret heartbreak and pining for his own lost love. Will Thompson and Johnny reunite with their exes?
