In THE LINE, Tom "Sunshine" Baxter (Alex Wolff) returns to Sumpter College as a sophomore for rush week, surprised to realize that Kappa Nu Alpha (KNA) fraternity president Todd (Lewis Pullman) is priming him for a leadership role. With his best friend, Mitch Miller (Bo Mitchell), as pledge master, Tom assists with pledge discipline and education. When the arrogance of Todd's favorite pledge, Gettys O'Brien (Austin Abrams), gets under Mitch's skin, Tom tries to intervene to get Gettys to treat Mitch with respect—and to get Mitch to back off. But emotions continue to escalate.
