Abigail Louise "Abby" Jensen (Debby Ryan), who is eager to grow up, has been planning for her sweet 16 ever since she was a little girl. She has a Список of secret wishes she wants to come true. When the big день finally arrives, she excitedly adds her 16th and final wish to the secret wish Список she's been keeping: a фото of Logan (Keenan Tracy), her crush.
Then begins the first of many unusual occurrences, each including visits from a peculiar woman, Celeste (Anna Mae Routledge). She first appears as an exterminator when the Jensen's house gets overrun by wasps from a nest in their attic that has been building up for 16 years. The Jensen family are now unable to go back into their house until the wasps are exterminated, however, Celeste manages to extract Abby's wish Список from the house.
Abby's best friend, сойка, джей Kepler (Jean-Luc Bilodeau), appears and offers Abby a куртка to wear over her pajamas, as she is unable to go back into her house to change. When Abby reaches into Jay's куртка pocket, she finds a birthday present for her from Jay. It is a ожерелье with a half of a сердце saying "BFF". сойка, джей has the other half which he uses as a charm on his key ring. As сойка, джей and Abby go to their bus stop, a delivery truck pulls up, and Celeste comes out, dressed as a mail woman and gives a package to Abby. When Abby opens it, she discovers 16 candles and a matchbox. Unwilling to ride the bus to school, Abby lights the first candle and wishes for a new car, the eighth wish on her list. However, her first wish, meeting Joey Lockhart (Joel Semande), the hottest celebrity, is fulfilled. Abby then realizes that the candles correspond to her 16 wishes on her Список and that they're each coming true every time a candle is lit.
Celeste later tells her after midnight, all wishes will become permanent. Abby lands the attention of Logan, gets the Ford мустанг she's always dreamed of, she gets back at her lifelong nemesis, Krista Cook (Karissa Tynes) by beating her in a волейбол match, then getting elected as Student Body President, even though she didn't sign up for the elections. Also, she is suddenly fashionable, athletic, and popular.
During classes, Abby remembers that she needs the perfect dress for her 16th birthday party and decides to go out and buy it, together with Jay, who agrees to pay for it. They are followed by Krista, who decides to see where Abby's sudden good luck comes from, and when сойка, джей drops his wallet she takes it. She also convinces the store clerk that they are not going to buy anything (saying they are children) and are just wasting her time. The clerk believes her and kicks them out. While in the changing room, Abby uses the ninth candle and makes a wish to be treated like an adult, which instead, makes her an adult. This turns for the worse for Abby as it results in her not being allowed to attend high school anymore, and no one at school remembers her, not even Jay. Her parents also buy her a new apartment and leave her to live on her own.
Regretting her wish, Abby tries to look for a solution by going through her wishlist, though none of them are useful. Abby goes to Krista's Sweet 16 and convinces сойка, джей that they are best Друзья by Показ him the birthday present he gave her which restores his memories of her, though, сойка, джей can't help her. Desperate, Abby seeks the aid of Celeste, who is also unable to help her. Celeste then explains that there are several rules of magic, and one of them is that a wish cannot be undone. Abby eventually finds a loophole through the rules, seeing as how her last wish was a picture of her crush, glued on with gum, which seems to act as a "barrier" between the picture and the rules. She switches the picture for a picture taken that morning of her and wishes she could go back to that morning.
Abby's life then goes back to normal, along with some dead wasps in the process. She and Krista reconcile after Krista tells Abby why she hates her. Back in the 3rd grade, Abby and сойка, джей made a pact to be best Друзья forever, leaving Krista out, though up until that point, Krista and сойка, джей had been best friends.
