Jesse Braddock finds herself trapped in a tiny Everglades cabin with her infant daughter and her ex-boyfriend, a wannabe reality TV star. Desperate and broke, Jesse stumbles upon a long-lost treasure that could solve her problems, but dangerous men are also on its trail.

Meanwhile, Ken Bortle devises a plan to save his failing store by creating viral videos of the "Everglades Melon Monster," played by an unemployed alcoholic newspaperman named Phil. The plan attracts hordes of TikTokers to the swamp, coinciding with the villains' search for Jesse's treasure.
