Le lycée Jules-Ferry n'affiche que 12 % de réussite au baccalauréat, ce qui fait de lui le pire lycée de France. L'inspecteur d'académie propose alors au proviseur d'engager les pires professeurs, en espérant que, paradoxalement, cela permettra au lycée de dépasser les 50 % de réussite ; faute de quoi, le lycée sera fermé. Sont alors engagés sept professeurs aux méthodes atypiques : Serge Cutiro (surnommé Tirocu par les élèves), un professeur dont on ne sait pas au départ la matière qu'il enseigne (juste excellent en maths, qui sera sa matière où il enseignera dans la suite) très fainéant, déclarant par exemple : « Aujourd'hui, on invente un exercice, on le fait, on le corrige, tout seul et en silence, hop c'est parti ! » ; Gladys, une professeur d'anglais tyrannique adepte du lancer de craie ; Albert, professeur de chimie féru d'expériences dangereuses et bizarres qui finissent la plupart du temps en explosion ; Amina, professeur de français aux courbes affriolantes ; Éric, professeur d’EPS adepte des exercices dangereux ; Maurice, professeur de philosophie québécois totalement incompréhensible (sauf quand il est sous l'emprise de l'alcool) ; et Antoine Polochon, professeur d'histoire idolâtrant Napoléon, et n'ayant jamais passé le CAPES.

Dido Elizabeth Belle Lindsay was born in 1761, the natural daughter of Maria Belle, an enslaved African woman in the West Indies, and Captain Sir John Lindsay, a British Royal Navy officer. After the death of Dido's mother, Captain Lindsay takes Dido from the slums of the West Indies in 1765 and entrusts her to his uncle William Murray, 1st Earl of Mansfield, the Lord Chief Justice, and his wife, Elizabeth, who live at Kenwood House, an estate in Hampstead outside London. Lord and Lady Mansfield raise Dido as a free gentlewoman, together with their niece Lady Elizabeth Murray, who came to live with them after her mother died and her father remarried. When the two cousins reach adulthood, the Mansfields commission an oil portrait of their two great-nieces, but Dido is unhappy about sitting for it as she is worried that it will portray her as a subordinate, like other portraits she has seen depicting aristocrats with black servants. Dido's father dies and leaves her the generous sum of £2,000 a year, enough to make her an heiress. Lady Elizabeth, by contrast, will have no income from her father, whose son from his new wife has been named his sole heir. Arrangements are made for Elizabeth to have her coming out to society, but Lord and Lady Mansfield believe no gentleman will agree to marry Dido because of her mixed-race status, so while she will travel to London with her cousin, she will not be "out" to society.

The film’s opening credits have a lingering sense of unease to them, which is capitalized on as soon as Caroline and Jackie arrive at the “surprise birthday party” Caroline has planned for Jackie (despite her birthday not being for two months and it actually being Caroline‘s birthday) – where the dynamic between the pair (and Ryan, to some degree) is pushed out to the larger group, ratcheted up by rapid cuts and lingering looks between Jackie’s friends. But it’s not just a surprise dinner party that Caroline has put together – when the group ends up back at Jackie’s place, the real “party” is revealed. It’s an intervention for Jackie, headed up by Caroline, who hopes that she and Jackie’s friends can help her with a variety of issues – anorexia, pill abuse, alcoholism, and even sexual promiscuity.
