Mei Lee è una tredicenne che si trasforma improvvisamente in un gigantesco panda rosso quando si emoziona troppo (che significa praticamente SEMPRE). La madre di Mei Lee, Ming, è protettiva, se non leggermente autoritaria, e non si allontana mai da sua figlia: una realtà imbarazzante per un'adolescente come lei.
