Megan Bloomfield (NATASHA LYONNE) is a 17-year-old, high school cheerleader with a seemingly well-adjusted life and boyfriend of two years. Yet, whenever she's making out with him, she can't help but think about the other cheerleaders and their bodies, a point that he, her parents, Peter (BUD CORT) and Nancy (MINK STOLE), and friends have obviously noticed.
As such, they've arranged for a sexual identity intervention and have invited Mike (RuPAUL CHARLES) from True Directions, a rehabilitation camp for sexual reorientation, to their home. Although Megan doesn't believe she's a lesbian, her parents send her off to the camp with Mike. There, she meets the perky and optimistic but homophobic founder, Mary Brown (CATHY MORIARTY), and her stud of a son, Rock (EDDIE CIBRIAN), whom she secretly knows is gay.
Megan also meets various self-confessed gay and lesbian teens who are going through a five-step program designed to reprogram them into being heterosexuals. Among them is Graham (CLEA DuVALL), a bitter and defiant lesbian who isn't happy with her parents sending her to such a place, Hillary (MELANIE LYNSKEY), who shows Megan the ropes, Sinead (KATHARINE TOWNE), a punk rocker, and Jan (KATRINA PHILLIPS) a young woman who sports a Mohawk haircut. Among the young men is Andre (DOUGLAS SPAIN), an actor, and Dolph (DANTE BASCO) a wrestler.
As the young men and women go through the various steps of being reprogrammed, they must curb their feelings and desires for one another, the counter programming efforts of Larry (RICHARD MOLL) and Lloyd (WESLEY MANN), two ex-ex-gays who run a homosexual halfway house, and the ever present and observant Mary who diligently watches over her young charges.
