Synopsis

Spoiler shield

Rushon is sexually pent-up and ready to take thing things to the next level with his girlfriend, Nikki. But when he calls for a date, she asks to make it a double — bringing along her brash friend, Lysterine, whom Rushon sets up with his lewd buddy, Bunz. Things go better than expected. As the evening transitions from the restaurant to the bedroom, the two men go on a madcap search for what will surely make the night complete: condoms.

“Some guys will do anything for a little somethin', somethin'.”

Back in the day 2 of the many superstars from in living color. This movie cracks me up so much. My favorite is when he's doing impressions during a sex scene. really hilarious raunchy comedy.
