A scare at a local corn maze prompts Tara (Toni Collette) to transition into Chicken and run off, only to be found crying by Noah (Aaron Christian Howles). When Marshall's (Keir Gilchrist) film gets accepted into the New York High School Film Festival, Marshall asks Max (John Corbett) to escort him to New York but there's only one problem: Max is deathly afraid of flying. En route to New York, Kate escorts Max and Marshall to St. Louis, where they are introduced to Evan (Keir O'Donnell) and his unruly son, prompting Kate (Brie Larson) to question her commitment to Evan.
