Plot

After the funeral of Marc and Kyle (who had been giving one another oral sex in the car until Celine Dion's tour bus collided with theirs while going the wrong way), Kyle's mom Helen (Mink Stole) takes in her nephew, geeky but cute Casey (Daniel Skelton), and gives his number to Tiffani von der Sloot (Rebekah Kochan), Kyle's infamous slutty fag hag friend, who hires him at her salon Nail Me. They venture to the local LGBT center so Casey can volunteer for an upcoming event, and Casey meets Zack (Chris Salvatore), a gorgeous frequent visitor. So Tiffani and Casey set up a phony online profile using the image of Tiffani's buff ex, Ryan... which works fine until the real Ryan (Michael E.R. Walker) shows up. Ryan pretends to be gay to aggravate Tiffani, so he accepts Zack's date, but later bails. Zack finds Casey to talk to, but then finds out that Casey and Ryan had both lied to him. Ryan and Tiffani both wanted to help get Casey and Zack together, so they shut the door and lock them in a room together to talk through it. But the problem was not getting solved, so Ryan, although he is straight, decides to strip and get into a threesome to get Casey and Zack together. Only through some fancy footwork, advice from Aunt Helen and mentor Harry (Leslie Jordan), and a daring sexual escapade can Casey figure out how to set things right and perhaps even find the love he's been seeking.
