Murray "Cheese" Marks and John Apple, his slimmer, richer, more single friend, have chosen the happiest place on Earth for their annual boys trip. Disney World may seem like a strange choice for two grown men on a glorified binge-drinking trip. It is. But Cheese has never been, and his wife allows him this expense-free trip

The Magic Kingdom was the last place John saw his parents before they died in a plane crash. He was twelve then and wants to return before he turned thirty.

Cheese and John's buddy comedy turns into a love-triangle drama when they meet a beautiful, free-spirited southern Belle named Virginia. John and Cheese quickly fall in love, but Virginia's parents inexplicably push her not toward the handsome single millionaire but toward Cheese. And Cheese can't help but encourage it at least until his wife and John's ex descend on Florida
