Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Certain that everyone has forgotten her 21st birthday, a melancholy Whitley (Jasmine Guy) decides to throw a party just for herself. Unbeknownst to Whitley, Kim (Charnele Brown) is arranging a secret birthday celebration, which is supposed to be "for girls only"--at least until Ron (Darryl M. Bell) and Dwayne (Kadeem Hardison) find out. The ensuing chaos results in a nasty fall for Ron, which surprisingly turns out to be beneficial for Walter (Sinbad) when he meets an attractive hospital medic (Charlayne Woodard).
