Wyatt Trips (Paul Rudd) suspects his girlfriend Kimberly (Christine Taylor), who attends college across the country, is cheating on him. To exact revenge, Trips sends her an angry letter, a forged "used" condom, and a picture of him with his stripper friend Ivy (Reese Witherspoon) topless. After he discovers he was wrong about Kimberly's infidelity, he and Ivy go on a cross country trip to stop the letter from arriving at Kimberly's dorm. Along the way, the two encounter a hostage situation, a psychotic delivery man, and a romance blossoming between them.
