The film opens with a title card that jokingly claims thatPaul Newman,Robert Redford,Steve McQueen,Al Pacino,Burt Reynolds,Ryan O'Neal,Robert De Niro,Clint Eastwood, andCharles Bronson are the stars of the film. This is followed by a cartoon professor delivering the line "ooh all these big stars, not one of them is in the picture."

They create a plan to support themselves as graduate research students by getting a foundation grant to study sexuality in college-age women.
