Trama
Un gruppo di accademici ha speso anni chiuso in casa lavorando all'Enciclopedia definitva. Quando uno di loro scopre che i suoi contributi sul gergo sono estremamente datati, si avventura nel mondo per imparare l'evoluzione del linguaggio gergale. Qui incontra Sugarpuss O’Shea, una cantante di nightclub, la quale è espertissima di slang e, si dà il caso, ha bisogno di un posto dove stare.
