Plot

Jack spends his summer doing a part-time job in an amusement park. Meanwhile, an expensive diamond is stolen by three thieves. In order to escape from the police, the thieves hide the diamond inside a fluffy toy at the park. However, Jack's fingerprints were left at the crime scene unintentionally.

It is the last day of summer vacation, so Jack decides to hangout with his best friend David. On their way to the park, they meet two cute girls: Debbie and Angie. The four have a good time in the park, and Jack and David both fall in love with the girls, but they don't know that the three thieves have come back to the park and plan to take their diamond back.
