## Premise

18-year-old Katie Parker (Lucy Hale) and her best friend Sara Snow (Phoebe Strole) are planning to rush into the Delta sorority, which was founded 27 years ago by Katie's mother Lutie (Courtney Thorne-Smith) and Summer (Faith Ford), whose own daughter Gwen (Amanda Schull) is currently in charge of the Deltas on campus. However, when Katie overhears something troubling, it drives a wedge between her and every house on Sorority Row as she is now an outcast.
