It's summer in Boonelg, and just before school starts back, the hunk of Jennie's grade, Nick Lazzarri, returns from a juvenile detention facility. Jennie has always had a huge crush on Nick and decides that, as her last year at Boonelg High, this is the year she has to become more cool and make a move. She dyes her fringe blonde and buys a whole bain-marie of mini pizzas for Nick from the school canteen, but she is no match for the school's head skank, Tracy Hooker. Meanwhile, Jennie's Aunty Cassandra reunites with her sister Berenice after not speaking for three months. Berenice suspects something is up and is proved right when she discovers that Cassandra's husband Gary has left her to work on a gay cruise ship.

Jennie's mother, Berenice, has been chair-bound for weeks after a nasty spider bit her leg, but the doctor assesses that her main problem is her morbid obesity. Cassandra however, is more concerned with the well-being of her new cat Chinnie and exploiting the special needs adults she is supposed to be caring for. Jennie tries to help her mother lose weight, but after the Tummy Tumbler proves ineffective, she and her friends enlist the help of their GLS (God's Love Society) spiritual leaders, Miss La Mont and Miss Butcher, and they hold a cult-like intervention.
