Summary
Deuce Bigalow, a meek Los Angeles fish-tank cleaner, accidentally trashes the home of a high-end male escort he's house-sitting for. To pay for the repairs, he reluctantly takes up the gigolo trade himself, guided by a fast-talking pimp called T.J. Along the way he goes on a string of odd dates with unconventional women and unexpectedly falls for one of his clients.
