Could Mr. Gibb have something to do with her disappearance? When a police investigation reveals that Mr. Gibb gave Ally a ride home mere moments before she vanished without a trace, the teacher who was universally despised discovers that his troubles have only just begun., Grade-A black comedy stars Hayden Panettiere as an attractive and popular high-school cheerleader who is kidnapped, and Tim Daly as the unpopular teacher who had a crush on her and is suspected of the crime.
