When the president of the United States proposes a controversial law, self-important celebrities of every stripe are found out to be feasting on their colleagues, giving birth to a new social movement, and impacting the entire country.

Some actors improvised a few lines of jokes that were so well-received they made it into the final cut of the film. One such example is the line during the first Oval Office scene in which Agent Dubee says, "Tangerine is on the move."
