Given a choice between jail time or community service, Danny (Paul Rudd) and Wheeler (Seann William Scott) agree to act as mentors to a couple of underprivileged kids (Christopher Mintz-Plasse and Bobb'e J. Thompson). But expecting this pair of immature, energy-drink abusers to be Role Models is like asking the blind to lead the blind.
