The movie starts with Justin (Justin Timberlake) and Seann (Seann William Scott) taking two girls into their apartment. As they are about to go in, the key doesn't fit. And suddenly the Keymaker (Randall Duk Kim) shows up and realises they are the ones. He opens the door with the key around his neck. He opens the door and when Justin and Seann enter the door, they are transported to Zion, where (as in the film) a party is held at the temple. They learn from an extremely flamboyant dancer (Andy Dick) that Zion is the last human city and the robots are coming to kill them. They also learn that Morpheus is having a huge orgy at his place with machines. Justin refuses, but when Seann tries to stay he's pulled by his ear out. They come through a door and they see that Seann has a really kinky suit made of leather. Seann runs through a door marked 'Men' and Justin goes through another door into a park. He sees Neo talking to the Oracle (Wanda Sykes). After a discussion about N'Sync and the robot, Stiffler comes. He sticks his hand into and transforms her into a clone of him. And just then an army of Stiffler clones comes out and fights Justin as a parody of the "Burly Brawl" scene.

The dim-witted but good-natured Derek Zoolander is ousted as the top male fashion model by the rising star, Hansel, and his reputation is further tarnished by a critical article from journalist Matilda Jeffries. After his three roommates and colleagues are killed in a "freak gasoline-fight accident" (where they spray each other with station gasoline and one of them lights a cigarette), Derek announces his retirement from modeling and attempts to reconnect with his father Larry and brothers Luke and Scrappy by helping in the coal mines. Derek's delicate methods make him an impractical miner, and his family rejects him.
