Storyline

Chip's class uses a computer to match kids with dates with kids from another school for the upcoming "computer picnic." Chip is excited about his date - until he meets her and discovers that she's about a foot taller than he is. Chip is willing to go through with the date, but the girl realizes that Chip is very uncomfortable with the situation, and suggests that they call it off. So Chip and his buddies get together and swap their dates based on more personal preferences - pleasing Uncle Charley, who dislikes the newfangled computer dating. Chip ends up trading dates with his much taller friend, Marv (Ed Begley Jr.).
