Two secretly chaste celebrity heartthrob best friends fall in love with the same increasingly neurotic, sexually abstinent, nice girl, posing as her secret admirer on Valentine's Day, and a wild "Boy Band Rock Star Love Triangle" controversy erupts into both dangerous and amusing mellow-drama, secret reveals and deadly insanity, amidst the teenishly upstaged backdrop of a strange and creepy alien invasion from outer space. The content substance is heartfelt, real and important, but the delivery style is like a humorous spoof on grossly self-absorbed and over-sexualized teen TV dramas, albeit giving all the ignored celibate youth and "True Love Waits" lifestylers out there the glamorous spotlight for once, while parodying trashy pop culture with biting satirical dry wit. It's a smart, passionate love story that will make you laugh, cry, gasp, swoon, feel better, see higher and understand deeper. You won't find a unique adventure like this anywhere else. The whole 13 episode 1st season will change your life forever and give you somethin' to talk about for lifetimes to come...
