|---|
Two conjoined twins cope with their disability. Working as short order cooks in their own burger restaurant, they seem happy and content. However, one of the brothers yearns to be an actor. Convincing his twin, they make the humorous and adventorous move to L.A. There are few opportunities for conjoined twins, but the actor gets a role. Meanwhile, the other twin longs for a girl that he's never met, but has been in contact with on-line for quite some time. Their disability doesn't hinder them, but everything they do is hilarious.
