In the town of Hudson, Ohio, Scotty Thomas is dumped by his girlfriend, Fiona, immediately following his high school graduation in 2004. With his best friend, Cooper Harris, Scotty attends a graduation party that evening, where the band performs a song “Scotty Doesn’t Know”, detailing the affair Fiona was having with the band’s singer, Donny. Scotty returns home drunk and angry and reads an email from his German pen pal, Mieke—whom Scotty calls “Mike”—expressing sympathy for Scotty and suggesting they meet in person. Cooper suggests that “Mike” may be a sexual predator and Scotty tells Mieke to stay away from him.
Scotty’s younger brother, Bert, informs him that “Mieke” is actually a common German feminine name. Realizing Mieke is a girl and he has feelings for her, Scotty tries to contact her again, but she blocks his email address. Scotty decides to travel to Europe with Cooper to find Mieke and apologize in person. Scotty and Cooper first arrive in London, where they befriend a Manchester United football hooligan firm, led by Mad Maynard. After a night of drinking, Scotty and Cooper wake up on a bus on their way to Paris with the hooligans. In Paris, they meet up with their classmates, Jenny and Jamie, fraternal twins who are touring Europe together. Jenny and Jamie decide to accompany Scotty and Cooper to find Mieke in Berlin.
The group travels to Amsterdam, where Jamie is robbed while receiving oral sex in an alley, losing everyone’s money, passports, and train tickets. They attempt to hitchhike to Berlin, but due to a language misunderstanding, they end up in Bratislava. Finding a great exchange rate with the U.S. dollar, the group goes to a nightclub. Drunk on absinthe, Jenny and Jamie make out with each other, witnessed by Scotty and Cooper, and are horrified when they realize what they are doing.
