Michael Woods is a lazy, preppy 20-year-old living off his parents' wealth in Los Angeles, while struggling through college classes and dating a spoiled heiress named Gina, whom his family dislikes. Michael learns that his 11-year-old cousin Tommy Biggs, whom he has not seen since a family reunion several years earlier, will soon be arriving from Montana to visit. Michael casts Tommy aside during his visit, prioritizing his social life and the demands of his girlfriend over his guest. On Tommy's last day in California, the family housekeeper Arlene makes Michael aware of his mistreatment toward Tommy and that she will tell Glenn and Jacy everything. Michael decides to take Tommy to Disneyland to make up for it. However, en route to the theme park, Michael receives a phone call from Gina pleading for him to meet her at a racetrack so she can introduce him to her father. Michael capitulates and leaves Tommy at an indoor kiddie park, then drives to the track for a brief visit. At the race track, Michael charms Gina's father over the course of a couple hours. When Michael realizes how late it is, he hurries back to pick up Tommy, and accidentally collides his Porsche Boxster with another vehicle. Afterwards upon arriving at the kiddie park, Michael learns Arlene had picked up Tommy several hours earlier. When he comes home, Tommy angrily confronts him about this. Arlene mentions that she is disappointed in him for how he treated his cousin. They don't tell his parents about it and Michael lies that he got the dent in his car from a hit-and-run. After Tommy returns to Montana and during dinner, Jacy mentions that she got a call from Michael's aunt, Jules, who told her that Tommy didn't get to do much of anything. In turn, she mentions that they are very disappointed in him. Glenn confronts Michael and mentions that Arlene has told him everything. He demands that Michael explains his reasons for him leaving Tommy at an indoor kiddie park, rather than cancel his plans with Gina. He claims that if he canceled on her in meeting her father and took Tommy to Disneyland, she threatened to break up with him.
