A wildly mismatched squad of women, ages spanning from 16 to 84, set out to recover a long-lost family treasure. What starts as a daring heist-turned-rescue mission soon evolves into an adventure of unexpected friendships, outrageous escapades, and self-discovery.

A long-lost stolen family jewel resurfaces at a hackathon. This leads the women on a rollercoaster adventure to right this wrong and return it to its owner.
At a loss of where to start, they impersonate Mormons in an attempt to uncover the mystery behind its reappearance.
When that doesn’t work, they attend a clown conference and recruit a team of clowns to create a diversion to get to the jewel.
This leads to an FBI interrogation followed by a road trip to the daughter's home in Spokane and finally an auction where it seems all is lost as they are about to lose the jewel forever.
At the last minute, the jewel is returned to the rightful owner in the most surprising way. And the women are not the same.
These hilarious adventures transform them as they are forced to bond and work together. Along the way, they face and let go of their limited beliefs and narrow visions of friendship, possibility, and justice.
