Barely settled into her third new home in six years, thirteen year old Beans (Quinn) Fagioli stumbles upon a crime in the quiet rural community of Mill Creek, New Jersey. When the owners of the local bakery across the street discover their dog Buster is missing, Beans can't help but shift her limited detective skills into high gear. In a matter of hours, she recruits her unsuspecting, next-door neighbor Booger (Balthezar) Bugorowski. Less reluctant to get involved is Booger's kid sister Haddie who relies on her special talents along with her Etch-a-Sketch to help. Luckily for Beans, her first-ever crush, a handsome high school football player named Vito Rusamano, lives only a stone's throw away and offers his forensics support. But Beans' journey isn't an easy one. Her taxi cab driving mother Paulie and the annoying local cop (Officer Wallace) attempt to get in her way. Complicating matters is Booger's unproclaimed love for this red-headed girl-next-door. Unaware of her friend's feelings, Beans leads her motley crew through a perilous maze, one that reveals a dangerous dognapping ring and a medieval knight.
