[edit] Premise

Get a Clue follows the exploits of Lexi, a privileged 14 year old girl who has spent her entire life amongst the wealthy and elite of Manhattan. Clad in Prada, she prides herself on her ability to get the scoop and serve it up in her school newspaper's gossip column. When a photograph Lexi has taken of her teachers is published in the city's daily paper, things start getting weird. A teacher at the school, Mr. Walker, goes missing and Lexi, along with her working-class-family friend Jack, sets out to solve the mystery behind the disappearance. What follows is an action-packed adventure laced with mystery and drama.

[edit] Production

In the scene where Lexy is talking with her dad, she refers to Timon and Pumbaa saying "Hakuna Matata". There is a part at the end where Lexy is holding a camcorder "supposed" to be recording when the camera is really off. "If Cupid Had a Heart", written by Gordon Pogoda, was played in the opening scene of the film. The song has also been featured in the Hannah Montana episode "I Want You to Want Me ... to Go To Florida". Singer Julie Griffin sings it in both the movie and the TV show.
