A drug-dealing teenager is best friends with his shrink, who is also his client. Said teenager is in love with said shrink's stepdaughter.
This is a blend of coming-of-age story and satire. The satire has to do with the idolization of black culture on the one hand, and middle-age immaturity on the other (and shrinks in general, I guess). No character is really likeable, although the protagonist comes off as a kind of victim of sorts. His shrink tops at laughability, with advices such as: "Try to make love to a black woman [while in college]. I never had the chance." The film would gain by paying more attention to the plausibility item. It's not very remarkable in other aspects as well.
