High schoolers, Sasha and Nina sneak in through the window of a vacant hotel room with every intention to share their first sexual experience, so they won't fall behind their more experienced class mates. A comical escalation of events, estimations and emotions leave the pair realizing that perhaps this is not something to be rushed.
