Plot Summary
The film begins with three aliens, one blue, one red, and one yellow, traveling to Earth in a flying saucer. While watching a holographic music video of a multi-coloured female of their species, they enter Earth's atmosphere somewhere over California.
Valerie Gail (Davis) is a valley girl manicurist who works for the "Curl Up & Dye" hair salon. When she feels her cold fiancé Dr. Ted Gallagher (Rocket) is slipping away, she attempts to seduce him with a new look; instead she catches him cheating on her with his nurse. She kicks him out and refuses to see him until the wedding. The next day, she is sunbathing when the aliens' spaceship crash lands in her pool. Wanting them to blend in to their surroundings, she takes them to her friend Candy Pink (Brown, co-writer and co-producer). After shaving off the aliens' fur, they turn out to be attractive men. They all go out and party at Los Angeles nightclubs.
The three aliens — red Wiploc (Carrey), yellow Zeebo (Wayans) and blue Mac (Goldblum)— absorb human (American) culture through ten minutes of television, and Valerie takes them on a tour of human culture. Valerie and Mac discover that they are much better off together and she leaves with them once the ship has been repaired.

Famous quotes containing the words plot and/or summary:
“James’s great gift, of course, was his ability to tell a plot in shimmering detail with such delicacy of treatment and such fine aloofness—that is, reluctance to engage in any direct grappling with what, in the play or story, had actually “taken place”Mthat his listeners often did not, in the end, know what had, to put it in another way, “gone on.””
—James Thurber (1894–1961)
“Product of a myriad various minds and contending tongues, compact of obscure and minute association, a language has its own abundant and often recondite laws, in the habitual and summary recognition of which scholarship consists.”
—Walter Pater (1839–1894)
