The series follows teenager Clay Jensen (Dylan Minnette) as he returns home from school to find a mysterious box with his name on it lying on his porch. Inside he discovers cassette tapes recorded by Hannah Baker (newcomer Katherine Langford) --his classmate and crush--who tragically committed suicide two weeks earlier. On tape, Hannah explains that there are thirteen reasons why she decided to end her life. Will Clay be one of them? If he listens, he'll find out how he made the list.

In series premiere, Clay begins to listen to the first tape, in which Hannah relates the experiences that triggered her suicide. She starts by sharing the story of her first kiss, with Justin Foley, who spread a salacious rumor that began her downward spiral.
