Overview

Sentenced to summer school at Coxville Academy, four hapless teenage boys—Brad Lovett, Steve Hardman, Hugh G. Rection, and Marvin Eatmore—find themselves under the strict watch of Principal Arsenault. Rather than hitting the books, they cook up a points-based game to see who can score with the most girls, setting their sights on the elusive and alluring new French teacher, Mona Lott. Their pursuit leads to a series of misadventures involving wild pranks, elaborate disguises, and run-ins with the school staff. As the boys scramble for one last shot at glory during the school's anniversary celebration, chaos and raunchy antics ensue, all in the spirit of cheeky sexploitation comedy.
