Plot summary

The plot begins with Christina Walters (Diaz) and Courtney Rockcliffe (Applegate), all-around party girls, attempting to ease their roommate Jane Burn's (Blair) relationship-induced depression by taking her on a girls' night out. During that evening Walters meets Peter Donahue and falls for him. However, having missed her chance that evening, Walters and Rockcliffe spend the rest of the movie chasing him down.

The film uses mostly physical and crude gags as its source of humor. One memorable scene finds the lead characters dissuading a man's amourous attention by singing a song about his genitals: "You're...too big to fit in here! My body is a movie and your penis is the star!"
