Au point que Sophie a le sentiment que son mari, qui consacre ses rares temps libres à dormir, ne fait plus vraiment attention à elle. Un jour, une petite annonce affichée dans la boutique attire l'attention d'Olivier. Il y est question d'une maison de vacances en propriété partagée, située sur une petite île de Méditerranée et vendue à un prix ridiculement bas.

During a glorious Southern California summer, high school student Benny King (Hopkins) is doing time flipping burgers. Benny's father wants him to learn the work ethic, rather than have him sit around the house all summer, dreaming and writing. It's not surprising, then, that when his old friend Durrell (Brian Hooks) comes by with a more attractive alternative, Benny jumps at it. When his family goes on vacation, Benny borrows his father's Mercedes and heads on down to the beach with Durrell. They have told themselves that they are there to sell beach-goers cheap sunglasses, but they are really there to show off their 'phat' box and attract the finest girls with portable beats on the beach.
