Annika's little brother, Jeremy, is about to have cancer surgery. Determined to grant him a wish, Annika heads to Hollywood to track down--and bring home for a visit--Steve Raleigh, the star of Jeremy's favorite TV show. Annika's wacky encounters (e.g., a runaway snake on set) and anxiety for her brother make the story both comical and poignant.
