Her father insists that everything will be fine and is not just upbeat but insists upon being playful and silly.

One night, however, she stumbles upon an odd-looking creature named Blossom and follows her home. Bea discovers that a mysterious man named Cal is working with Blossom and other creatures of all shapes and sizes which are each imaginary friends (IFs) of children or at least they used to be.
