As school ends for the summer, Gerald Garner
(Aaron Schwartz) is sent by his parents to Camp
Hope, a weight loss camp for boys. Despite
worrying at first, Gerry makes friends easily at
camp and learns that Camp Hope is actually a lot
of fun and won't be nearly as bad as he thinks.
(As one veteran of the camp put it, Gerald is "not
the fat kid, everyone's the fat kid.") He also
discovers that the other campers have smuggled in
enough junk food to easily stave off the hunger
pangs and probably counteract any weight loss that
the camp programs cause.
But all is not well at Camp Hope. The first night
of the summer brings the revelation that the
original owners of Camp Hope, Harvey (Jerry
Stiller) and Alice Bushkin (Anne Meara), have
entered bankruptcy and the camp has been bought by
fitness entrepreneur Tony Perkis (Ben Stiller),
who announces his plan to make the camp's new
exercise regimen into the top weight loss
infomercial in the country. Tony tries to make
himself seem like someone the campers can relate
to, saying that he was a fat kid when he was
younger too, but his methods of motivating the
campers border on psychotic.
Tony cleanses the cabins of the campers' food
caches, cuts off their contact with the outside
world, and installs an exercise outline of trendy
fitness techniques that downplay fun to the point
of humiliation.
The campers discover a secret food stash and
actually gain weight, despite Tony's fitness
regimen. Tony forces them on a 20-mile hike,
reasoning that this will not only help the boys
work off some of their extra weight, but will also
restore discipline. On the hike, the campers trick
Tony into falling into a deep pit, severely
injuring him. The boys bring Tony back to camp and
imprison him in a makeshift cell of chicken wire
electrified with a bug zapper.
In the celebration of Tony's downfall, there is a
lot of binge eating. The boys order in pizzas,
submarine sandwiches, gorge themselves on
chocolate and drench themselves in soda.
The next morning, Pat Finley (Tom McGowan), a
counsellor who had come to Camp Hope every summer
since he was 10, tells the kids to finally start
taking responsibility and start actually losing
weight. The boys begin following a more healthy
regime and start to make Camp Hope a fun place
again.
On parent's visiting day, the parents are shown a
video of Tony's cruelty. While they are watching,
Tony escapes his prison and ends up exchanging
quips and then blows with Gerry's father. In an
attempt to make an impressive exit, Tony attempts
a series of backflips, stumbles, and incapacitates
himself. The parents tell Tony his days of
terrorizing their kids are over. Tony's own father
shows up to take the keys and deed for the camp
away from his son to ensure this doesn't happen
again. He states that the camp will be closed, and
all of the money paid for admission refunded.
But the campers don't want to leave Camp Hope.
Despite Tony Perkis, the camp and the friends they
have made are still a lot of fun. Pat starts
really putting the campers to work to win an
annual competition against some rather athletic,
and perhaps somewhat over-competitive campers who
are trained to go at this competition with
everything they have, which up until Pat took over
made the competition rather one-sided. Pat,
however, has been training them not to lose hope,
and just to have fun, which they do. It turns out
that they have just enough ability to win: to the
distress of the counsellors at the
overly-competitive camp, who have already decided
that the trophy belongs to them, and believe that
Pat is crazy for being more concerned about having
fun than winning.
