In 1939, ninth-grade teacher Miss Pringle died. Her students pledged to gather every five years to celebrate the ways Miss Pringle touched their lives. In 1959, eight of the thirty-five-year-old, former students gather in Rob's Diner in Lubbock, Texas. They are a diverse group. An Italian porn star, a Chicago nun, a homeless physicist living beneath a Baltimore bridge, a Manhattan house husband, a California surfer dude, an Air Force flight nurse, a man owning a Nashville professional wrestling and country music corporation, and the Lubbock diner owner. The former pupils share memories about the discreet life of Miss Pringle, never grasping the big picture. The audience, however, with an omniscient, voyeuristic view, can unravel stunning mysteries of Miss Nanette Pringle.
