On Valentine's Day at the Dumping Ground, Tracy Beaker scoffs at the fuss over cards and gifts—until she receives one herself. Peter, a timid boy, gives Tracy his late grandmother's cherished gold locket as a token of his affection. Thrilled by its potential value, Tracy contemplates selling or swapping it. Her quest for fame and fortune leads her to a live TV show, where she faces a dilemma: trade the locket for a grand prize or acknowledge her own feelings. Will Tracy's heart lead her to an unexpected decision?
