Deuce Bigalow 1: Male Gigolow 🎥 1999 Movie Info

Plot Summary

Deuce Bigalow is a lonely and insecure aquarist living in Los Angeles. He meets a gigolo, Antoine, who asks Deuce to care for his sick lionfish and luxury beachfront apartment while he is away on business in Europe. Deuce accidentally sets Antoine’s kitchen on fire and breaks his custom aquarium. Fearing Antoine will kill him, Deuce is forced to find a way to pay $6,000 for the damage. After attempting gigolo work, Deuce is approached by a pimp, T.J., who offers to help him by recruiting him. T.J. sets Deuce up on various dates: Fluisa, a mannish morbidly obese woman; narcoleptic Carol; Ruth, who has Tourette syndrome with coprolalia; and Tina, who is extremely tall.

Each of Deuce’s clients is satisfied by his attention and support, and he does not have sex with any of them. However, Deuce becomes enamored with Kate, who has a prosthetic leg. Deuce introduces Kate to his dad Bob who is a bathroom attendant. Initially embarrassed, Kate reassures Deuce and the pair fall in love. However, when she learns that Deuce is a gigolo, she breaks up with him. Meanwhile, Deuce is stalked by police detective Chuck Fowler, who demands Antoine’s black book of clients and threatens to arrest Deuce if he does not comply.

Deuce learns Fowler’s wife was one of Antoine’s clients; he helps Fowler excite his wife when they perform an erotic dance for her. However, Deuce is still arrested for prostitution when he refuses to betray T.J. In court, Deuce’s clients testify and reveal that he never had sex with any of them; rather, he simply made them feel good about themselves. Deuce only had sex with Kate, and because he returned the money he was given to sleep with her, he is cleared of all charges. Deuce and Kate reconcile.
