Storyline
Tommy Callahan Jr. is a slow-witted, clumsy guy who recently graduated college after attending for seven years. His father, Big Tom Callahan, owns an auto parts factory in Ohio. When Tommy arrives back home, he finds he has a position at the factory waiting for him. His dad also introduces Tommy to the new brake pad division of the factory and to Tommy's soon-to-be stepmother, Beverly, and her son Paul. But when Big Tom dies, the factory threatens to go under unless the new brake pads are to be sold. Therefore, Tommy must go on the road to sell them, along with the assistance of Richard, Big Tom's right-hand man. Will Tommy save the company, or will the factory, and the town, go under?

Mr. Brady, Customer: [confused] What? I'm failing to make the connection here.
Tommy: No, I mean is, you can get a good look at a T-bone by sticking your head up a butcher's ass... No, wait. It's gotta be your bull.
Richard: [embarrassed] Wow.

Trivia
The lunch box young Tommy is carrying at the beginning of the film while running for the school bus is a Brady Bunch lunch box. See more »Goofs
Factual errors: When Tommy is changing clothes in the airplane lavatory the end of his tie gets in the toilet, then he hits the flush button and the toilet sucks his tie down with such a force that it pulls his face down to the bowl. In actuality this blue water recirculation type toilet has a metal flapper in the bottom of the bowl and is designed as a simple gravity drain with no suction at all. See more »Quotes
