Then the past catches up with Fred when gangsters to whom he owes $200,000 find him and demand payment. Aware that Fred has no money, they kidnap Fred’s daughter and Dave’s daughter and demand $500,000 ransom, adding their $300,000 service fee, but the gangsters’ plans are disrupted when the girls overtake their kidnappers and demand terms of their own. All major characters dance and sing songs such as: Normal , Swingers, God Keeps the Cash Rolling In, You’ve Got to Close the Deal, Hormones, In Therapy, It’s All Fred’s Fault, We Could Just Shoot Them in the Head, plus many more.
