The film centers on nerd Maxwell Dweeb (Robert Carradine), who is a loner with no friends.
After being welcomed by the Director (Suzanne Somers), Dweeb is taken on a tour of the centre, where other Disney characters run various courses: Goofy is a fitness instructor, Donald Duck is a wardrobe manager and Pluto is a messenger boy.
After seeing Elton John sing a duet with Minnie in "Don't Go Breaking My Heart", Maxwell feels he has it figured out and displays his new hip personality with clothes akin to Elton's, but the Director stops him saying that it is just not him and that hipness doesn't equal emulation of another's style.
Then the Director, impressed by a newly made-over Maxwell Dweeb, decides to date him.
The film is intershot with various musical numbers including the duet "Don't Go Breaking My Heart" with Elton John (lip syncing to the original 1976 version) and Minnie (replacing Kiki Dee) and excerpts from early Disney shorts, including a D-TV The Pointer Sisters’ Neutron Dance & number of Janet Jackson's "Nasty" with a montage of male Disney villains such as Black Pete and Captain Hook shown.
