Herbert Hoover High School is the setting for the biggest night of the year, the prom, which is being run by Patrice Johnson (Christina Applegate). The couple who should be queen and king, Shelley Sheridan (Alyssa Milano) and Kevin McCrea (Brian Bloom), have just broken up and are looking for new dates.
Shelley skips the prom and goes to watch a horror movie - this movie is not a documentary - and meets the geekiest guy around, Dan Lefcourt (Chris Young), who hates trying to live up to the lovemaking ways of his dad Jack (Alan Thicke). Kevin decides to go after Angela Strull (Tracey Gold), who he heard was easy, and who is being protected by her friend Margaret (Tempestt Bledsoe) as well as her father Ed (Kelsey Grammer).
Angela and Kevin end up winning, Shelley and Dan are going steady and the night is ruined for Patrice and Roger (Matthew Perry).
Oh yeah! Edie McClurg is great in this, as is Mary Frann.
I have a big weakness for TV movies that feature stars of other shows all in the same story. And hey, there's a scene with Tracy Gold with big glasses picking movies out in a video store, which is pretty much heaven for teenage era Sam.
