A draft notice is the ticket to a pot commune near Acapulco for Nico, a privileged Chicago college student, and her pacifist boyfriend. The farm is run by Adam, a cannabis evangelist awaiting the arrival of Alien Overlords by growing the finest buds in the galaxy.
But when Smith, a demented CIA officer, spots Nico and her buddy Richard- a Ché look-alike- at a nearby village, he concludes Ché faked his death.
To smoke El Comandante out of hiding, he hires a Mexican cop to bust Nico and use her as bait. In jail, she meets Tippie, a ditzy hairdresser from a Louisiana hick town. Sentenced to crochet bikinis for crashing into a burro, Tippie chalks it up as "Mercury was in retrograde."
The chicks finagle their release, skedaddle to Acapulco and become Go-Go dancers. But with the spook hot on their trail, life goes completely FUBAR.
