Premise
editThirteen-year-old Nicole "Nick" Franzelli was raised by her father Tony who ran the popular Franzelli's restaurant in Portland, Oregon. After Liz Thompson opened her rival Crescendo Restaurant across the street, the Thompson family used dirty tactics to drive Franzelli's out of business. Tony borrowed money from the mob in a desperate effort to keep his restaurant afloat and then went to prison for robbing a convenience store to meet his repayments to the mob. Taken into state care, Nick was placed with corrupt foster parents Sam and Dorothy Harbaugh, who trained her as a con artist.
The series begins as Nick infiltrates the Thompson home under the alias "Nicole Patterson," claiming that her parents recently died in a car crash and the family are her closest living relatives.[3] Under the influence of her father and the Harbaughs, Nick endeavors to steal money and valuables from the Thompsons and wreak revenge on them. However, as she becomes increasingly attached to the family, Nick's loyalties are divided and she struggles to carry out her plan.[4]
Genre
editReviews note the difficulty in classifying the genre of No Good Nick, citing that, although it casts veteran child stars of Disney, Freeform, and Nickelodeon, the series features themes more attuned to adults such as physical violence and drama.[5][3]

Crescendo, the restaurant, fully books up for the event with the help of Molly's social media recommendation. In the chores market bidding for pocket allowance, Nick outsmarts Jeremy and Molly applying Monopoly tricks. During the wine tasting weekend, Nick plays her scam by pasting labels of high-end wine on cheap wine bottles and passing them to diners (Hence the title The Pig in the Poke). She is grossly disappointed when she finds out from her guardians and partner scammers that $5000 worth of wine bottles can't be fenced off without the original labels.

Nick approaches the 'volunteer squad' to plan her next scam. She suggests that they fine costume dancers who wear insensitive and offensive costume at the school dance. Later they can hire a cultural sensitivity trainer with the collected fine. Jeremy authorizes a $5 fine to avoid scandal and boycott of the event. They start collecting fines from costume dancers and put the money in a locked box. As Nick comes in, she starts fining students but puts the money in a similar box that she is carrying and switches the boxes after the dance (Hence the title The Money-Box Scheme). In all this Jeremy is prevented from going to his own event. Nick makes around $700 from the scam.

While making his election speech Jeremy makes several faux pas and is booed off. The teacher in charge gives the box of votes to a student to take it to front office and Nick pushes the box out of his hands making it look like an accident. While picking up the box, she switches the votes. Jeremy wins the election. As Jeremy thanks Nick, she tells him that they are family and so they cover for each other. She feels she has won his trust. The winning margin was the same (321 to 299), as given earlier by Nick. This makes him wonder if something is fishy.
