The series follows Robyn (Watson), a young Aboriginal delinquent searching for the truth behind a mysterious family secret, who escapes from detention and reluctantly teams up with awkward teenager Gidge (McDonald).

Hot on their heels are Maxine (Otto), a sex trafficker whose taxi Robyn stole, and Gidge's domineering father Robert (Taylor), a fraudulent preacher.
