Cristabel jogs on the beach every twenty-four hours with many suitors trying to catch her middle, including an albino stalker. Merely she's still single, and there is a reason: Cristabel is still best friends with the same short, unattractive brunette girl whom Nate also knew in elementary school, June Phigg.

Nate reintroduces himself to Cristabel and they hit it off. However, she refuses to proceed a appointment with him unless June has a date as well. Nate sets out to find a boyfriend for June, but men recoil at the sight of her. He tricks someone, nether the pretense that he's offering $500 for participating in medical testing, then explains it's to date June. At first, he'south repulsed by her, simply Nate hypnotizes him, so temporarily fools his encephalon, simply in the centre of a date he snaps out of information technology and runs.

One day at the Santa Monica Pier, Johann Wulrich, an attractive dentist and a role-time model, appears in their lives. He seems to want to do a makeover on June when he plainly sees her inner beauty. However, Nate believes that Johann is a threat to his shot for Cristabel, since Johann is most perfect. Eventually, with June dating Johann, Cristabel finally begins dating Nate, per his original plan.

Over the next few weeks, as Nate and June become friends and she emerges from her cocoon, with her face and advent transforming. She becomes a more and more bonny adult female whose beauty begins to be comparable to Cristabel's. Nate slowly realizes that June may be the girl of his dreams. When he realizes this, Nate tells Cristabel, who is happy for June.

Nate then hurries to find June, discovering that she had rejected Johann, who'd thought he would get 'grateful sex' from her. When Nate finds her, he tells her he loves her, and they kiss.
