Summaries

Plot Summary

Last American Virgin is a comedy-drama remake of the 1978 Israeli movie 'Eskimo Limon' ('Lemon Popsicle'). It revolves around three American high school students. Protagonist Gary (Lawrence Monoson) is a typical high schooler and all-around nice guy who delivers pizzas. Gary's two best friends are Rick (Steve Antin), a slick ladies' man, and David (Joe Rubbo), the fat-boy comic relief.Most of the plot involves their numerous failed attempts to have sex and lose their virginity. During one particular night, the three guys pick up three girls at their local diner hangout with the promise of cocaine (instead they use Sweet'N Low) and take them to Gary's house. Gary gets stuck with the homely and overweight Millie, a friend of the other two more attractive girls. But their party gets interrupted when Gary's parents return, and chaos breaks out. David gets left behind and accidentally walks into Gary's mother, whom he mistakes for one of the girls, and gets thrown out wearing only his underwear.One day, when Gary delivers pizza to Carmela (Louisa Moritz), a sexy Mexican woman whose sailor boyfriend is never home, she hints to him she wants more than just pizza. Being too afraid to follow up, Gary leaves. He convinces his friends to go with him to her home the next evening. They use the pretext that they were nearby on a pizza delivery and decided to bring her some extra pizzas. She lets them in, puts on music, and performs a sexy dance routine, to the delight of the boys. She promptly has sex with Rick and David, but her boyfriend Paco returns home just as Gary is about to have his turn, prompting them to flee.Later, a love triangle develops between Gary, Rick, and Karen (Diane Franklin), a new student. She becomes smitten with bad boy Rick but has some feelings for nice guy Gary, who follows her around occasionally.Rick and Karen have sex one night under the bleachers at the football field. Karen gets pregnant, and Rick leaves her. Gary decides to help her pay for an abortion by selling most of his possessions and borrowing money from his boss. After the abortion, Gary and Karen spend the remainder of the weekend alone together in Gary's grandmother's summer house so she can recover. They seem to hit it off, and Karen invites Gary to her 18th birthday party the following week. Gary scrapes up a few more dollars and buys Karen a gold locket for her birthday.When Gary arrives at the party, his dreams of a lasting romance with Karen are shattered when he sees her making out with Rick in the kitchen. Taking Karen's gift with him, a distraught Gary leaves the party and drives home, emotionally broken and defeated.

Storyline

Gary, Rick and David are American teens with one thing on their mind. They move from party to party, trying out their latest chat-up lines, which usually ends in miserable failure for Gary, as he's more interested in finding true romance than a quick fumble in someone's parents' bedroom. So when Karen arrives at their school, Gary falls head over heels in love, but Rick's baser intentions towards her threaten to break up their friendship for good. — Official synopsis Intrigued by Karen, the new transfer student, Gary, a sensitive pizza delivery boy, is determined to learn everything about her. However, his clumsy attempts to ask her out only push Karen into the arms of Rick, Gary's smooth-talking best friend. As jealousy and teenage hormones go wild, unexpected complications arise, bringing everyone back to earth. With emotions running high, will Gary, the last American virgin, be able to show Karen how much he cares for her? — Nick Riganas
