Synopsis

Comedy, romance. Jonathan is a new student at Vernon Academy, a prestigious prep school in Illinois for the offspring of wealthy Americans. He is at first the subject of practical jokes by his roommate Skip, but soon the two are firm friends. After Jonathan manages to get himself banned for life from the nearby boarding school for girls, Skip sends him to a pick-up joint in nearby Chicago. Instead of picking up girls, Jonathan is picked up himself, by Ellen, an older woman. Complications will ensue, when he discovers that she is Skip's mother.
