Synopsis: Political satire on the Ronald Regan presidency - though here referred to as "Daddy" and the "Potentate".Foppy Schwartz lives in a large town house in "Georgetown" he has bedrooms named after Genet, Wilde and Cocteau. He is the centre of the social whirl of the Capital and is the confidant of the first lady - Mrs Potentate. Mrs Potentate has arranged a liaison at Foppy's home with a young man - but she has forgotten his name and what he looks like. Before she arrives, Trudi Tunick arrives wearing a leather bikini and a commissionaire's overcoat. She says that she is the mistress of Herman Harrod and that he had said that Foppy would let her take refuge because she has a video of an orgy that she and Herman arranged for some high officials from the White Palace and they hope to sell it for a fortune. The doorbell rings - Trudi thinks it might be the Secret Service after the video - so she hides in the Genet bedroom. However, it is Gilbert a young man that Foppy lusts after. Gilbert has left his lover, the Mayor of a large town and wants to hide in case the Mayor chases after him. Gilbert has hidden in Foppy's bedroom when the doorbell rings again - this time it is Junior the son of the Potentates who wants to be a ballet dancer and to come out. He is running away from his parents to live his own life. The Mayor turns up and Herman, the video tape is passed from one person to another and finally Mrs Potentate arrives for her liaison. Gilbert and Junior meet and fall in love - it looks like Herman dies whilst having sex with Trudy. After much running in and out of the bedrooms. Junior and his mother confront each other. He tells that he loves Gilbert and that they are going to live together and come out publicly. However, they have all underestimated Mrs Potentate who gets the compromising video, forces Junior into marriage and Gilbert into an institution for the insane.
