Willett) and Brent Van Camp (Paul Iacono) are two closeted gay best friends who attend North Gateway High school, which is dominated by three feuding cliques led by the beautiful Fawcett Brooks (Sasha Pieterse), who rules over the richest and the most popular; the talented Caprice Winters (Xosha Roquemore) who leads the school's minorities and theater arts students; and 'Shley Osgood (Andrea Bowen), a nice but ditzy Mormon that leads the "goody two shoes" and conservative Christians. Brent hatches a plan to out himself at prom, which will make him the most popular boy at school since the latest trend in teen girl magazines is a G.B.F.--gay best friend. His other friends Sophie Aster (Molly Tarlov) and Glenn Bak (Derek Mio) are just as skeptical as Tanner, who would prefer to stay under the radar.

The plot is concerned with six teenagers, four of whom are gay men, the other two a "traditional" lesbian couple. The plot is spliced with segments of other material and occasional tangents not central to the plot, but it mainly follows a linear structure. Araki has constructed the film in 15 parts, which is described in the opening titles.
