  • Of course the series was perfectly set up to be a movie. Based of a popular book series? Check. Aimed at teeny bopper girls? Check. Something for the teeny boppers to squeal at (Children)? Check. Drama? Check. CIA? Check. Slimey, rabid children plotting to kill the protagonists? Check.
  • All of the club members (Kristy & her friends Mary Anne, Dawn, Claudia Kishi, Stacey McGill, Mallory Pike, and Jessi Ramsey) vow to keep a close eye out for misbehaving kids. Meanwhile, Kristy faces problems when she meets her estranged father (who abandoned her family seven years ago and started a new family in California), and faces a dilemma about telling her friends and family about this. Mary Anne is the only one she tells of the visit, and she too is under pressure as the curiosity of her friends grows.

  • All of the club members (Kristy & her friends Mary Anne, Dawn, Claudia Kishi, Stacey McGill, Mallory Pike, and Jessi Ramsey) vow to keep a close eye out for misbehaving kids. Meanwhile, Kristy faces problems when she meets her estranged father (who abandoned her family seven years ago and started a new family in California), and faces a dilemma about telling her friends and family about this. Mary Anne is the only one she tells of the visit, and she too is under pressure as the curiosity of her friends grows. The girls perform a rap song for Claudia who is stuck in summer school and is forced to retake a test, or faces repeating a grade and being forced to drop out of the club. Stacey has a crush on a seventeen-year-old boy named Luca. As their relationship ensues, she faces problems telling him about her diabetes and later, her age. This is revealed after a trip to a New York City club in which a bouncer does not allow her into a club because she is underage. Luca is outraged, unable to believe that Stacey is thirteen years old. Meanwhile, Dawn must face her neighbor, Mrs. Haberman, who becomes increasingly upset because of the camp activities that are taking place next door. It is Kristy's thirteenth birthday and she has arranged to go to an amusement park with her father. Promising her friends that she would make it to her own party, Kristy goes to meet her father, but he does not show up. She begins to walk home until her friends show up in Luca's car after Mary Anne's confession about the return of Kristy's father. Luca drives the girls back to Mallory's parents' cabin and present Kristy with a half-melted birthday cake. As Stacey is saying goodbye to Luca, he tells her that he will be coming to Stoneybrook again next year. Delighted, Stacey tells him that she will be fourteen years old when he returns. They share a kiss just before Luca departs. At the end of the movie, the girls, in return for making Mrs. Haberman's summer so miserable with their summer camp, give the greenhouse to her. Meanwhile, Kristy witnesses a miracle when Jackie Rodowsky hits his first home run, hitting Cokie Mason, who is sitting in a tree nearby, in the process.

Mallory tries to cover up her mistake by burning down the local summer camp, where pre-pubescents go to glue crap together. * Not to be deterred, Kristy convinces the town to move the camp to a new location and hopes to cure the children. She thinks it will be easier to give them all the cure if they are stuck in the same one-mile radius. * But OH NO! The camp supervisor wants the children to make macaroni art! What will happen if these children are exposed the the allergen? What will the glue do to them?! * Meanwhile, Stacy's disease is acting up. Mary Anne hasn't been able to sneak the medecine she needs from the CIA for a while. How could Stacy save the children if she can't even go outside?! Luckily she now has free time to try to create a cure for the children while in her basement laboratory. * Unfortunately, Haberman, an old lady who genetically engineers flowers that contain venemous pollen, has also discovered the childrens' ailment. But she plans to use it to stop the children from ruining her poisonous flowers! (That oddly don't affect them) She intends to feed them glue! * After trying every way possible, short of pouring the glue down the kid's throats, Haberman realizes that her plan is more difficult than anticipated. She instead befriends Stacy, who is lonely without being able to go outside without turning into a crisp of carbon. * When Stacy creates a capsule filled with the cure, Haberman injects them with...dun Dun-Dun DUN...GLUE! * The gates of hell open and all the children start acting rabid: biting, scratching, and foaming. They ooze acidic slime and begin to eat Haberman's flowers. * In an attempt to stop them, Haberman jumps into the rapid mosh pit of slime-oozers and is quickly eaten / disintegrated. * The venom in Haberman's flowers cures the children and they all pass out on the ground. * They wake up 5 hours later, not remembering a thing. * They baby-sitters club eats ice cream and smiles as the camera fades
