If that premise sounds vaguely familiar, the film is a modern, gay retelling of ''Literature/PrideAndPrejudice'' set on Fire Island. The cast also includes Creator/MargaretCho as Erin, the Mrs. Bennet analogue, Creator/MattRogers, [[Creator/TomasMatos Tomás Matos]], and Creator/TorianMiller as Luke, Keegan, and Max (counterparts to the Bennet sisters) and Creator/ZanePhillips as Dex, the story's Mr. Wickham.

Of all the gay men in their friend group, Noah (Joel Kim Booster) is closest to Howie (Creator/BowenYang) who, unlike Noah, wants a real romance. On their likely final vacation to Fire Island, Howie is attracted to Charlie (Creator/JamesScully), who seems equally as kind as he is. The first problem is that Charlie's wealthy friends, Cooper (Creator/NickAdams) and Will (Creator/ConradRicamora), obviously look down on Noah and the others. The second problem is that for all he dislikes him, Noah can't help his interest in the snobbish, intellectual Will.
