Plot:
Jane and Roxanne (Roxy) Ryan don't get alone but must try on their way from Long Island to New York City. Overachiever Jane wants to win the Callahan Fellowship scholarship to study abroad, and rebel Roxy wants to sneak backstage and get Simple Plan to listen to her demo tape. Somehow Jane's day planner lands them in the middle of a black-market deal involving a computer chip that the limo driver is after (they find it in a pork roll). They're also accused of kidnapping a senator's dog after he EATS the chip-containing pork roll. Jane gets arrested, but Jim the bike messenger helps her out. They can't fail or Roxy could end up in a convent school and Jane's college dreams might not come true. In the end the sisters get closer with Roxy prepared to 'be' her twin to win her the scholarship after she's arrested.
