Harry Plotnick, a New York City numbers runner, is back on the streets after a nine month prison stint, looking to reclaim his turf. Caught in a whirlwind of Jewish family life and all kinds of New York strivers, Harry encounters mobsters, lawyers, caterers, an overbearing sister, another daughter he has never met, cops, rabbis, and radio hosts.

In sunny suburbia, a loud-mouthed Jewish mom incessantly nags and humiliates her shy teen son, who she calls her Boychick. Meanwhile, in the classroom, Boychick can't stop ogling a hunky classmate. If only he had the courage to face up to his desires. As if by magic, along comes his idol, pop star Ashley Hart, to give him the hip-strutting, hair-flicking confidence he craves.
