Joel Goodson, virginal boy-next-door, is left alone for the first time as his parents are away from their suburban Chicago home. His best friend Miles orders him a prostitute "Jackie" who turns out to be a transvestite, but another prostitute Lana, does meet his requirements. Joel's efforts to pay her $300 fee spiral spectacularly out of control, damage that must be undone before his parents return home.
