Plot
Walking home from school, Jannette Ley (Cristina Pucelli) hears a sudden crash in the distance and finds an intergalactic spacecraft called the Mark Infinity. She brings her friends, whom she calls her "posse"; her best friend Luis Inez (Josh Keaton), whom she has a secret crush on, and Johnson siblings Max (Kath Soucie) and Cam (Kari Wahlgren); to the crash sight to share her discovery. As they enter the spacecraft and look around its interior, Max pulls a push-lever, re-activating the Mark Infinity, as well as its artificial intelligence (Frank Welker); which Jannette names A-I afterwards. Max suggests that they show the Mark Infinity to everyone they know.

Afterwards, they start showing their neighbors and schoolmates after advertising it through copied posters. The jocks and cheerleaders in their class regret and take back what they had said about Jannette and her friends, even their neighbors give the posse some accolades for finding their spacecraft. One attendee presses the "hyperdrive" button on the console, leading to the spacecraft to shake; making everyone but the posse to run out. After Luis asks if they leave as well, Jannette decides to travel into space; as an opportunity to do something they were destined to do. Her friends, with no hesitation, join her in being seated before the Mark Infinity rockets into space.
