Having blown his roommates rent money on get-rich-quick schemes, Edison (Carrot Top) is forced to find a job before they're evicted by their fed up landlady. A failure at everything, Edison heads to the beach where he meets fellow inventor and corporate big wig Armand McMillan (Jack Warden). When Armand dies and leaves his invention company to Edison, is would seem he's landed his dream job. There's only one problem: Armand's nephew Bradford (Larry Miller), who vows to get even after he inherits nothing but his uncles' surfboard. Edison soon discovers that running a corporation is no easy task, but with the help of Raquel Welch and Courtney Thorne-Smith, he just might ride that wave all the way to the top.
