U.C. 223. La Fédération s’est écroulée depuis longtemps et ses différentes nations qui la composaient ont retrouvé leur indépendance, notamment les colonies spatiales qui ont justement effacé fièrement ce statut de colonie pour devenir des entités à part entière. Deux pouvoirs ont émergé de cette nouvelle organisation géopolitique : le Congress of Settlement Nations (CONSENT), alliance impérialiste qui incorpore largement l’ancienne Fédération et les colonies Sides 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, et la Settlement Freedom League regroupant le reste. Las, le CONSENT souffrant d’une grave crise alimentaire, il décide de s’emparer par la force ou de détruire les technologies plus avancées détenues par la nation neutre Side 8. Mark Curran, un ancien pilote de mobile suit, rejoint alors un groupe de résistants, les Illuminatis, pour contrer CONSENT.

Vulcanologist Peter Slater Dan Cortese, studying elevated steam-activity on Angel Mountain, finds evidence of an impending eruption such as many animals lying dead for no apparent reason. His ex-girlfriend Kelly Adams, a resident of the eponymous town, is told about his findings—which unfortunately, happen to be during the peak tourist season. Kelly tries in vain to warn the townsfolk and council of the danger, but they fail to heed and evacuate—until the mountain shows ashfall. After several attempts to find a solution, Peter declares that the lava is soon going to come down like "a liquid avalanche" which gives Kelly the idea (due to Angel Mountain and some others nearby being snowcapped) of using a snow avalanche to stop the lava flow—at which Peter balks, until Kelly tells him of the lack of other albernatives. The two then set out skiing to planting explosives to set off a controlled avalanche to stop the flow—but in attempting to escape the resulting avalanche Peter gets buried and Kelly makes it into town to witness the result, the snow avalanche blocking off (and solidifying) the lava-flow. At that point, Peter manages to dig himself out and return to town, after which he and Kelly rekindle their romance.

While father and son drive the truck, Faith follows them most of the time in her car. Father and son are unable to strengthen their bonding and further dissensions arise along the way. However, Rock films the entire trip on camera and posts it on his blog. This gathers more and more fans on the internet and on the road and even causes some media coverage. Rock's internet acquaintance and love interest Katie (Paula Brancati) joins Rock on the way. Together they reach Washington, D.C on Thanksgiving. Meanwhile Faith's boss (Ted Atherton) secretly changed the plan. He wants to repeat the contest every year and therefore decides to erect the tree rather than planting it.

Finally the President of the United States calls the Park ranger on his cell phone and tells him to plant the tree.
