Every summer, scores of Manhattan twentysomethings take
part in an annual ritual with a camp-like culture distinctly
its own: the Hamptons sharehouse. When Rachel and her two
best friends buy their shares for twenty times each of their
bank balances, they're imagining days filled with lazy
suntanning and classy clambakes and nights spent rubbing
shoulders with the Olsen twins and other celebrities. But
once they arrive at 1088 Montauk Highway on Memorial Day
weekend, they find that the reality falls a bit short. What
looks like any other million-dollar mansion--on the
outside--plays host to drunken escapades, explicit nudity,
hot tub hookups, hideous hangovers, and juvenile mischief on
the inside. As housemates jockey for limited bathroom time
and beer pong mania takes over the house, Rachel finds
herself wondering if it's possible to find true love--or
even just survive the summer--in The Hamptons.
