When a wild driving lesson crashes through the family garden, Uncle Ben Blowhard discovers something far more valuable buried beneath the soil—oil! In his eagerness to strike it rich, Ben convinces the town that they're all sitting on a fortune and persuades folks to invest in stock certificates, but his grand scheme soon spirals into chaos as greed takes hold. This wild romp captures the fever of quick riches and the trouble that comes when everyone suddenly thinks they've got it made.
When Hap Hazard volunteers to put together a hot band for the Charm Chicks' dance, he rounds up the gang to rehearse at a girl's house—and promptly drives her father up the wall with the noise. Her solution? Move the rehearsal to a vacant loft over the bank, but the kids' enthusiastic music ends up masking a robbery happening in the vault below. Now caught in the chaos, Hap and friends have to help the police crack the case if they want any shot at performing Saturday night.
When Hap gets caught eavesdropping on his teacher Miss Meek, he stumbles onto her secret: she's rehearsing romantic lines because she desperately wants Mr. Joshup to ask her to the senior dance. Seeing a chance to get back in her good graces—and knowing she'll help him pass Latin—Hap offers to coach *her* on romance instead. A makeover and some matchmaking schemes follow, but Hap's interference sets off a chain of romantic complications that lands him in hot water just when he needs Miss Meek's tutoring most.
When Hap agrees to take his girlfriend Babs to the championship basketball game, he's confident—until he learns his father has already volunteered him to escort Marion, the boss's niece, hoping for a raise. Caught between two dates and desperately scrambling to juggle both, Hap's schemes spiral from one wild excuse to the next, each one landing him in hotter water than the last. It's a frantic evening of mistaken identities, fake illnesses, and increasingly desperate improvisations as this teen troublemaker discovers that sometimes the only way out is through.
