There ,she gets into a few funny situations,as she tries to befriend her roommate and his friends. Her roommate and his friends warm up to her/him after her friends help her pose as a very popular man with the ladies.

She also gains the respect of her coach as she trains very hard to play in the male team.

 

And,she falls in love with her roommate,Duke ( Channing when he was young,slim and hot-I don't like how Hollywood makes its leading men buff-bulk up) who is in love with Olivia.
