Incapacitated by a hangover, a frigid attorney lets his wannabee actor friend take his place in the courtroom where all hell breaks loose. Although Richards engages in numerous sight gags, it cannot help the lack of depth in the film's poorly written script. With better material, Richards and Daniels would be fun together.
