The drama film The Fallouts follows a group of teenagers as they cope with the aftermath of a school shooting. High school student Vada goes to the bathroom in the middle of class after her younger sister Amelia calls her when she has her first period. While in the bathroom, a school shooting happens, and Vada hides in a stall with her schoolmates Mia, a dancer, and Quinton, whose brother is killed in the shooting. In the weeks following the incident, Vada's trauma causes her to become depressed and isolated from her family. She also withdraws from her best friend Nick, since she cannot relate to the gun control activism he has been spurred to do in the aftermath. Instead, she becomes closer to Mia and begins to spend more and more time at the latter's house. At her parents' behest, Vada attends therapy and returns to school, but finds the ordeal uncomfortable. She cannot bring herself to enter the bathroom where she hid, resulting in her peeing her pants when she hears the sound of a soda can being crushed. In order to cope with the stress, she takes ecstasy, resulting in Nick having to help her through the resulting high.
