Synopsis

Paul Morse (Jason Lee) is a good guy. When his friends throw him a wild bachelor party, he just wants to keep his conscience clean - which is why he´s shocked when he wakes up in bed with a beautiful girl named Becky (Julia Stiles) and can´t remember the night before. Worse than that, she also happens to be his fiance´s cousin. Desperate to keep his fiance, Karen (Selma Blair), from finding out what may or may not be the truth, he tells her a teensy lie. Which turns into a bigger lie. From the bachelor party to the wedding, soon his lies are spiraling out of control and his entire life is a series of comical misunderstandings. It´s amazing how much can change because of one little thing: A Guy Thing.
