Overview
Princess Zooey is having a hard time making friends when she comes to Royal Prep. She decides to start a Princess Adventure Club and invites the princesses to join except Amber, who was rude to her on her first day.
Plot
At Royal Prep, Princess Zooey is having trouble finding a place to sit when Sofia suddenly walks up and invites her to sit with her and her friends. Everything's going fine until Amber shows up with a meteorite, calling it a meteor. Zooey corrects her, but the conceited Amber rudely snaps at her and ignores her correction. Through a song, Sofia encourages Zooey to start a club to make friends. Zooey decides to start the Princess Adventure Club with Sofia as its first member.
Together, they soon enlist Princess Vivian and Kari. The Club's first adventure is to the Misty Forests of Outer Marttinos. Everyone has such a great time that when news about it spreads at Royal Prep, all the kids want to be in the Club. Amber tries to join, but Zooey, who's still mad at her, rejects her. At Enchancia Castle, Sofia tries to tell her big sister that Zooey only rejected her because she hurt her feelings on her first day of school, but the egotistical Amber refuses to listen and starts the Amber Adventure Club to get even. The next day at Royal Prep, however, her attempt to do so bombs because everyone finds Zooey's Club more fun. In the end, Amber can only get a reluctant Sofia and two students to join. Both Clubs set out: Zooey's Club sets out for the Diamond Tide Pools of Albini Islands to collect diamonds and Amber's Club heads to North Meekland to collect meteorites.
When the Clubs arrive at the area, disaster strikes: Zooey's Hot Air Balloon Hydrofoil goes out of control. The pilot then goes to look for help. Meanwhile, the Amber Adventure Club is heading to North Meekland when they spot the hydrofoil coming their way. Prince Chad spots the Princess Adventure Club stuck on Albini Islands and the Amber Adventure Club goes to save them after Sofia persuades Amber to do so. After the coach arrives, one of its back wheels falls and breaks. While the coachman goes to fix the coach, which can hold up to five people, Sofia plans to bring Zooey to the hydrofoil on one of the horses so she can fly it back to Albini Islands. Amber decides to help, and Zooey thanks her and Sofia.
Working together, Sofia, Amber, and Zooey catch up to the hydrofoil and Zooey steers it back to Albini Islands. Meanwhile, the pilot gathers enough wood for a rift and the coachman fixes the wheel. While the Princess Adventure Club visits the tide pools to search for diamonds, Zooey apologizes to Amber for not letting her into the Princess Adventure Club. Amber apologizes for being rude to Zooey and decides for them to join their clubs together, to Sofia's delight.
